GeoRef

GeoRef is the American Geological Institute's

records of North America since 1785, and other

areas of the world since 1933. The database

references to geoscience journal articles, books,

maps, conference papers, reports and theses.

Books, Maps and Reports Each month between 6,000 and 7,000 new
