While the compilers state they have created 'a tool to find information for those who are not experienced in using reference collections, ' this book can benefit experienced users too. The use of natural language is so very sensible, the value of the book is increased many times over. . . . This sturdy book is easy to read, easy to use, and eminently practical. . . . Finding the Source will be useful in both libraries and homes.-Booklist
