These are AGU field guides (digitized) from the 1989 series. The contents within them are still relevant today. Most of the coverage is US, but there are some international locations included.
This collection of 30 field guides targets the geology of the United States, along with several international locations, with an emphasis on locations near GSA meetings.
Member institutions of the HathiTrust have made some historical field guides available electronically. This small selection of titles comes primarily from the 19th and 20th centuries.
This project, developed by librarians at several Ivy Plus institutions, aims to preserve web-based geoscience field trip guidebooks — which document local geologic information and are often ephemeral, and only available for a short time — found in the Geologic Guidebooks of North America Database for researchers and scholars within the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation and beyond.
The database consists of references to geologic field trip guidebooks of North America. Most of the guidebooks cited are from the period 1940-1988.
