Although thousands of biographical dictionaries are indexed in
Biography and Genealogy Master Index, among other sources, there are
thousands of sources that are not indexed anywhere.
In IUCAT, to find biographical dictionaries of specific geographical,
ethnic, national, professional and other groups, try an advanced search that
includes the subject terms biography and (dictionaries or
encyclopedias).
For example:
It is helpful to find the exact Library of Congress subject headings for the group, profession, etc.
Occasionally, a work which is a biographical dictionary will not be cataloged as one, but usually including the word biography in the search will bring it up anyway.
