Cruising the web always nets some interesting sites.

This one is for Alberta and was compiled by Manfred Prokop of Okotoks,
Alberta.  He published several books on German settlements in Alberta and
also on the subject of teaching German.

* Annotated bibliography of the cultural history of the German-speaking
community in Alberta : 1882-2000 *was published in 2002 and is now avlb on
line at the U of Alberta website - with a number of updates.

There is an explanation of the project and how to use the bibliography - ie
by checking the index for a particular subject you will find the pages on
which the subject is covered.

Horst Gutsche  (a former SGGEE member) summarized and translated one of Dr.
Prokop's newest books:

Pastor Gutsche gives info on how to get a copy - (although it may also be
found in some libraries)

I hope those searching in Alberta find something useful.
