Abstract

At the dining room table in a modest house in Sonyea, New York, Bohdan Wynar and David Parish worked to edit the latter's manuscript on state government publications. The now‐well‐known publishing firm, Libraries Unlimited, began in that unpretentious setting, but the result of their effort was a landmark in state government bibliography. For the first time, in the 1970s librarians had a guide to valuable reference material at the state level which has long been known as a complicated, yet rewarding, area in which to work.
