For those wanting to learn about Computer Geeks: (004.0922 INT)
International Biographical Dictionary of Computer Pioneers edited by Lee. Alphabetical listing of persons with a brief biographical entry, as well as a bibliography of work about the the person and a list of their significant publications.
One of many, I'm sure, bibliographies to picture books, the
Companion to American Children's Picture Books edited by Kirk (011.62 KIR) is an alphabetical listing of "titles, authors/artists and topics of interest." Not definitive, but handy for someone looking for quality picture books. Includes appendices for searching for Caldecott Medalists by title, year, author, and illustrator and a list of the Reading Rainbow books. Some entries have pictures of the books, but not all.
Want to know what are the names of all the serial publications (magazines and newspapers)? There is the four volume set,
Ulrich's Periodicals Directory 2013 (016.05 ULR 2013 v1-4). Volumes 1-3 are in subject order and then all titles under a subject are listed in alphabetical order. Volume 4 has
- a alphabetical title order,
- the subjects cross listed (ex. looking for exercise magazines? try instead under physical fitness),
- titles no longer in print
- look up by ISSN
- and the Dailies and Weeklies.
Oh joy, oh rapture! I may actually use the picture book one, though I'm disappointed that
Liza Lou and the Yeller Belly Swamp Monster is not included.
