Born
in Pennsville, Morgan County, Ohio, on May 13, 1899, librarian Frances
Lydia Yocom’s contributions to librarianship are many, but most notably are
marked by her thoughtful, groundbreaking works on subject retrieval of
research about and by African Americans, her book reviews of works
concerning African Americans, and her bibliographies, which preserve for us
titles that without her documentation would likely remain lost to future
readers.  [More at
