Over the years, Genealogical Publishing Company (Baltimore, Maryland)
has reprinted selected articles from dozens of major genealogical
journals in one to five volume sets. Generally the selected articles
have a common theme, such as ship passenger lists, compiled genealogies,
or transcribed source records. The publisher adds an every-name
index to the reprinted articles, and often a significant preface
discussing the periodical and explaining the selection criteria
and related information. Many genealogical libraries purchase
these reprint series, making them much easier to locate and use.
