Tóm tắt

When discussing biographical works in the context of reference necessities, it is impossible to exclude the Dictionary of American Biography. Having already looked at Who's Who in America RSR 8 no. 4 (1980) and the National Cyclopedia of American Biography (RSR 9 no. 4 [1981]), it is appropriate that we review also what many librarians and scholars consider the essential source of information on famous Americans.
