e/HW Wilson Company

Information
has gloss	eng: The H. W. Wilson Company is a publisher of reference books and databases, specializing in indexing and abstracting, and based in the Bronx, New York. As a bookseller, Halsey William Wilson faced tedious searches through publishers catalogues several times a year. He founded the company in 1898 to publish the Cumulative Book Index, a sort of predecessor to the modern Books in Print. The Readers Guide to Periodical Literature started in 1901 and it did for magazine articles what the Cumulative Book Index did for books; it remains a staple of libraries to this day. Also, with each subsequent edition released since the first in 1933, Joseph Nathan Kanes Famous First Facts, now in its sixth edition (ISBN 0-8242-1065-4, published in 2006), has remained H.W. Wilsons largest selling single volume reference work.
