83. Locating Biographical Resources
Biographical dictionaries and Directories. Biographical dictionaries providebrief, factual information about people, living or deceased.
http://www.library.wwu.edu/ref/howtoguides/biog3.htm
Locating Biographical Information
in the Western Libraries
There are several ways to go about locating biographical information. For books on individual subjects and collective biographical works, search the Online Catalog using your person's name as a subject, for example: ANGELOU, MAYA - Biography Other sources of biographical information, typically more brief than books, can be located through some basic types of biographical sources: Biographical Indexes Biographical Directories , and Biographical Dictionaries
Biographical Indexes
Biographical indexes are designed to condense the search process by indexing both major and lesser biographical dictionaries and collective biographies. The Biography and Genealogy Master Index or BGMI ( From the Library Homepage: Search Databases, Browse Indexes and Databases Alphabetically is a comprehensive index to more than 10 million biographical sketches in over 1000 current and retrospective biographical dictionaries, covering contemporary and historical figures throughout the world. Search by persons last name followed by first name. Citations give the subject’s name (with each variation) followed by year of birth and/or death. Contemporary Authors provides "complete biographical and bibliographical information and reference on more than 120,00 U.S. and international authors."

Basics on Australian family histories, biographies etc
SAG has an excellent range of family histories, biographies of individuals and collected biographies in its collections. Not just published work, but much unpblished work, not to be found elsewhere. So before you embark on your research, consult our collections to avoid re-inventing the wheel!
Family Histories - Background
SAG's collections are divided in two: the Australasian Collection at Richmond Villa, 120 Kent Street, Sydney, and the Overseas Collection at Rumsey Hall, 24 Kent Street. So, in a typical family history that covers both aspects, where will the book or pamphlet be located?
If the book/pamphlet deals exclusively with the Overseas section of a family's story, the book will be located in the Overseas Collection. If it deals exclusively with the Australasian section then it will be located in the Australasian Collection. If it deals with both, we don't tear the book apart! It will be located in the Australasian Collection.
Family histories located in the Australasian Collection are not further sub-divided into individual states i.e. irrespective of where your family lived in Australia, all family histories are shelved together.

As with general encyclopedias, works such as the Encyclopedia of Educational Research are excellent starting points for investigating a research topic.

    Biographical Resources
    If you know the artist's name, consult biographical dictionaries to learn some basic, but important facts about the artist. Often, these publications are organized by regions (e.g., Dictionary of New Orleans Artists ), by subject (e.g., Dictionary of Marine Artists ), by media (e.g., Dictionary of Western Sculptors in Bronze ), or by time periods (e.g., Handbook of 17th-, 18th- and 19th-Century American Painters ). Please see our appendix for a comprehensive bibliography. Biographical dictionaries provide vital statistics, including life dates; locations of birth, death, and activity; school affiliations including where the artist studied or taught; and memberships in artistic clubs or societies such as the National Academy of Design. Some dictionaries also provide variant spellings of the artist's name, information on when and where the artist exhibited, or list the whereabouts of the artist's major works. Because an artist might be listed in more than one dictionary, checking several might help you develop a greater understanding of the artist.

    The University of Chicago Library owns the biographical archives listed below. Each of them is a microfiche compilation of entries appearing in a large number of biographical reference works, including many highly specialized titles. The earliest reference work included was originally published in 1646, and the most recent in the 1990's. If an individual's biography appeared in several sources, each entry will be included. The biographies are arranged alphabetically. There various ways in which the content is indexed. The Library has printed indexes for several of the sets listed below (see details in the individual entries.) The printed indexes provide brief entries, and valuable cross-references. The networked source World Biographical Index provides indexing for the content of the following biographical archives: American (I and II); Australasian; Baltic; Benelux; British (I and II); French (I and II); German (I and II); Jewish; Italian (I and II); Scandinavian; Spanish, Portuguese, and Latin American (I and II). These electronic indexes provide access by names, occupation groups, countries, and birth and death dates. Both the printed indexes and the electronic indexes provide detailed lists of sources included in the archive. If a title listed below is still is in preparation, and the Library may have only incomplete holdings to date, and a printed index may not yet be available. The archive is still searchable by name, however.
