General Bibliography for Music Research

Book excerpt: Presents references to general bibliographical resources of aid to music researchers, with sections on resources such as national and trade bibliographies, dictionaries, indexes and directories, and union lists and library catalogs. This third edition reflects changes since the publication of the second edition in 1975, and includes citation of later editions and newer titles and the presentation of databases and library networks. Other changes include the creation of a bibliography section at the end of each chapter, and the transfer of publication data from prose text to the bibliography section.
