This bibliography of new books received at the U. S. Office of Education's Educational Materials Center from January 1968 to May 1969 and related to social studies programs in elementary and secondary schools is divided into two parts: juvenile literature and textbooks. The 284 books listed in the first part have been favorably reviewed in at least two major professional journals covering such books or have appeared on a major selective bibliography. The books are grouped under two headings: "General Social Sciences" (22 books) and "Regions of the World" which includes "More Than One Region" and "Single Regions" (Africa, the Arctic, Asia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, the Pacific Region, and the United States). The textbook section is also divided into "General Social Studies" (22 books) and "Regions of the World" (89 books)--Africa, Asia, Canada, Europe, and the United States. Brief content notes and appropriate grade level are provided for each bibliographical entry. (LH)
