While at the Smithsonian Karp often had student interns manage a wide-ranging set of bibliographies and files of the articles listed that he kept on a range of topics related to his research. When he moved to Emory, he continued to keep them more or less up-to-date for a number of years, but as computer-based research became more prominent, with electronic documents etc. he eventually stopped. These bibliographies are a good guide to some of his interests and sources and continue to be a research resource.

N.B.: Included in the folder "Africa" is a file called "Steven.Bib" which is an alphabetical index of topics and Iteso concepts covered in the fieldnotes and material that Steven Omuse, Karp's last research assistant, sent to him. 

N.B.: This is where Karp kept files related to teaching. His course syllabi and reading lists for courses are contained in the folder "COURSES". All the syllabi included here are for courses Karp taught at Emory, often various versions of the course.
