SALINAS PUBLIC LIBRARY
LOCAL HISTORY FILES
SUBJECT INDEX
This Index lists the subject headings used in the Salinas Public Library Local History Files located at
the John Steinbeck Library, 350 Lincoln Street in Salinas, California. The headings used in the files
appear in Bold Faced type. The word See refers the reader from a subject heading that is not
used, to the subject heading that is being used in this index and in the files; the words See also
indicate a subject heading where additional material may be found. In some cases the See also
reference is to material in the Local History Subject files; in some cases the See also reference is to
material in the Local History Biography files; and in some cases the reference is to a book in the Local
History Book Collection. On occasion subject headings in the regular Library Catalog files are given
after See also. Only true Local History File subject headings should appear in the darker type in this
index.
Most of the material in these files dates from the 1970’s, however, some articles are of an earlier
date, and some are much later. Individual subjects may have only one article, or a subject may have
many articles. It is not known how long the Salinas Public Library has been collecting information
concerning the local area. Since the library opened in 1909 and many library workers and generous
donors have contributed material to the library. The library also has a project to index the Salinas
Californian, the local newspaper. This indexing project began late in 1982 and will continue until the
papers of June 2002 are indexed. The Californian after June of 2002 should be available using the
Library’s Internet resources. Check with the Reference Librarian for use of either one of these files.
The Index is in alphabetical order and the page numbers for the beginning of a new letter are listed
below. The Index was composed in Microsoft Word Perfect 2003 and it is possible to search the
online index for keywords using FIND.
