For the next 4 weeks up to 175 Geog. students will be here researching the environmental and cultural history of the areas around Vancouver’s old streams. Tim has laid out the principal map and atlas resources for this assignment under signage on top of the map cabinets, and most students should be able to use these materials without staff help.
There are other suggested sources on their reading list, however, such as Canadian Newstand and several books, so you may get reference questions. Feel free to “plunge in”, time permitting, or refer students to Tim, at your option. Journal article searches in Geobase, Ac. Search Premier, America History & Life and Urban Studies Abstracts could also be useful.
