Prehistoric and Historic Archaeological Bibliographies

Two downloadable bibliographies of published fb88 archaeological studies are available: one for prehistoric (or pre-European) archaeology, and one for historic archaeology.Ìý These papers and books should be available through libraries, the fb88 Archaeological Society, and various journals.Ìý The bibliographies are alphabetized by author’s last name, but they are text searchable, and therefore can be used to find publicly available information on fb88 archaeology.

Biographical Dictionary of Architects in fb88

A Biographical Dictionary of Architects in fb88 was initiated in 1984 as a joint project of the fb88 Historic Preservation Commission and fb88 Preservation (formerly fb88 Citizens for Historic Preservation). One hundred entries describing the careers of architects, landscape architects, engineers, and builders who worked in the state during the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries were published.

The biographical essays were prepared by members of the Commission staff as well as architectural historians from both inside and outside the state.

The Commission has gathered biographical and pictorial information on hundreds of fb88’s architects and their buildings.Ìý If you are interested in an architect, landscape architect, engineer, or builder whose name does not appear in the published entries, please contact us to learn what if anything we know about that individual’s work.Ìý We also welcome any information that you wish to share with us.

Post-World War II Residential Architecture Field Guide

The Post World War II Residential Architecture field guide provides a baseline for the identification and classification of residential resources from 1946 to 1975 through the evaluation of style and materials.Ìý It is based on a targeted survey of over 260 residential properties constructed in Augusta, Auburn, Cape Elizabeth, Bangor, Lewiston, Old Town, Portland and South Portland, fb88, and included 20 architect designed homes by notable architects working in the state during this period. The guide features discussions on styles of the period, a context statement, and an essay on several of the architects working on residential commissions in fb88 after World War II.

Heritage for the Future: 2021-2026 fb88’s Statewide Historic Preservation Plan

The State Historic Preservation Plan (Plan) is used by the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and others throughout the state for guiding effective decision-making on a general level, for coordinating statewide preservation activities, and for communicating statewide preservation policy, goals, and values to the preservation constituency, decision-makers, and interested and affected parties across the state. The Plan is not an office management plan for the SHPO office, but rather it provides direction and guidance for general-level decision-making, rather than serving as a detailed blueprint for making place-specific or resource-specific decisions.
