Who's Who and Who Was Who


UCL now subscribes to the electronic versions of Who’s Who and Who Was Who.

Who’s Who contains over 33,000 short biographies, continually updated, of living noteworthy and influential individuals, from all walks of life, worldwide.
The first edition of Who Was Who contained the entries from Who’s Who of those who had died between 1897 and 1915 with the date of death added to each. Subsequent volumes of Who Was Who — there are now eleven — cover the years from 1916 to 2005.
