What is a lookup?

Lookups are a place to list off-line resources that are willing to look up information for folks. The county coordinator is not obligated to do any lookups, but simply to provide a forum where people who are interested in the county and have materials may make contact and provide information to others who are searching.

Limitations and copyright issues ~ See Below

Feel free to request a look-up from the following books. Please limit your request to one name per request. Please put BUTTE CO LOOKUP in the subject line of your request to insure the message is not overlooked or accidentally deleted. In the first line of your message(s), please put the name of the book you are requesting the lookup in.

If you request a lookup, don't forget to thank your volunteer for their time.

Limitations and Copyright Issues

The USGenWeb Project will not tolerate any copyright violations. Lookup requests should be limited to one name, or perhaps two if it is a married couple. Information given should be minimal, for example:

If it is a cemetery lookup, the information should be the name of the cemetery and the dates on the headstone. If someone asks for "everybody with X surname" or an entire family group, or for hard copies to be mailed, please advise that The USGenWeb Project volunteers have been asked not to comply with such requests.

Lookups can extend to searching the copyrighted material to determine if the material would be helpful to the requester in their research. Should the copyrighted material prove useful, the volunteer can provide the author's address and ordering information.

More information about USGenWeb copyright rules can be found here.
