Dear Bruce:
I went on-line to look at the Chicago Public Library database and I could not find Engineering on it. I checked around at the various colleges and Universities and had no luck. I highly recommend before traveling to a library to check their catalogue on-line and then call them, it will save a trip. The really bad thing about Engineering is its title. Because most databases will look on engineering as the first word in a title and not the only word. So you get either long lists or a please specify a specific title type of statement. Which means they don't have it. Chicago Public Library had a reference to Engineering, but no Author or dates, and by trying to limit the search by specifying a date was useless. You are going to need a big Engineering library or maybe the Field museum?
Sincerely,
James Pepper
