WorldCat is an online catalog that allows users to search nearly 18,000 library catalogs in more than 120 countries. Because it is a shared catalog, the descriptions are very detailed and the names of artists prominently featured in books and other resources are often listed. As a result, WorldCat can be a powerful tool for artists seeking published references to their work.
WorldCat also shows how many libraries own or subscribe to particular resources, so authors can track the reach of their publications and other output.
In addition to Internet searches, which may require significant sifting, artists may search their names in subscription databases that exclusively feature newspaper articles and reviews.
