Political Science Guide: Census Materials in Ekstrom Library


Where is the Census?

That depends on which census you need. Many of the census volumes are cataloged and shelved with the books on the 3rd floor of Ekstrom Library. The University of Louisville Libraries do not own Census Rolls (the files with individual names).
