Additional Stain Removal References
Further extension publications cited by the stain-removal series
The Ohio stain-removal series closes with its sources: a bibliography of cooperative extension publications on carpet care, cleaning and stain removal, including Boschetti's Carpet Care, Cleaning and Stain Removal (Nebraska Cooperative Extension Service EC 82-2057, 1982) and companion publications available through university extension distribution offices. This page preserves that reference list in full, so readers who want the deeper manuals behind the fact sheets can find them by title, series number and publisher.

Why a Reference Page Belongs in the Series
Fact sheets are summaries by design: each one compresses a body of extension research into a few pages a household can act on. The reference list is the trail back to that research — the full manuals on carpet care and stain removal from which procedures and precautions were drawn. Keeping the citations with the sheets matters for anyone verifying a treatment for an unusual fabric or stain, or maintaining a home-care library: title, extension series number and distributing university together identify each publication unambiguously, even decades after printing.
Finding Extension Publications
Cooperative extension publications were distributed through university publication offices, typically ordered by series number rather than by bookstore channels. Many have since been superseded by updated extension websites, but the procedures in the cited works remain the foundation the Ohio sheets rest on, and libraries holding extension collections can still supply the originals by the numbers given here.
Common Questions
What is this page for?
It is the bibliography of the stain-removal series — the extension publications on carpet care, cleaning and stain removal from which the fact sheets drew their procedures.
How are the publications identified?
By author, title, extension series number, publisher and year — for example Nebraska EC 82-2057 — which is enough to order or locate each work unambiguously.
Are these references still useful?
Yes, as the documented foundation of the series' methods; for product-specific questions, current extension guidance should be checked alongside them.
