Dear ARLIS-L,

A faculty member has asked me how she could go about finding the number of books and articles written about Picasso. An approximate number would be fine.

Searching EBSCOhost with Picasso in the subject retrieves 10,598 articles. (Today, anyway.)

A search of WorldCat finds 20,887 books with Picasso as a named person in the subject.

Any other ideas? She just wants to toss off a number to make an impression but would like some research behind it. :-)

Thank you!

Sara
