OLIN REFERENCE CURRENT BIOGRAPHY

Caveats and history:
These titles formerly constituted the Olin Reference Current Biography section. They were integrated into call number order in the Reference collection in 2001. The list follows the order in which the volumes were originally shelved. I have added some biography titles to this list since the 2001 reshelving. This is far from a complete list of the biographical resources available for living person. Some of these titles contain entries for both living persons and the deceased. Who's who in the title denotes only living persons at the time of publication.

Note: LVIR = last volume (i.e., edition) shelved in reference. Earlier editions are usually shelved in the Olin stacks. LVIR also implies that we have an active subscription and an extensive backfile of superseded editions for the titles so labelled.
