  • Book History Online - International bibliography of the history of the printed book and libraries.
  • British Book Trade Archives 1830-1939 - Lists the known locations of British publishers, printers, booksellers and stationers, active 1830-1939.

  • London Book Trade Database - a Microsoft Access file developed by Michael L. Turner of over 30,000 individuals active in the London book trades from the introduction of printing to around 1830. Emphasis is placed on recording specific events in each individual's life, and on recording the inter-relationships, both familial and professional, within the trade.
  • Nichols Archive Project - an analytical guide to the correspondence and papers of John Nichols (1745-1826) and family, printers and antiquaries.
  • Nineteenth-Century American Children's Book Trade Directory - a database of individuals and firms involved in the manufacture and distribution of children's books in the United States chiefly between 1821 and 1876.
