Sources
The bibliography consists more than 6600 publications of the work by Clifford Simak in more than 3300 books, magazines, radio broadcasts, TV movies, movies and stage plays. I am far away of owning them all (just around 200). Most of these bibliographic informations are compiled from other bibliographies and articles.
I ask for your understanding that I had to limit myself in quoting only the most important sources. I evaluated hundreds of sites I found in the web. From some of these sites I just overtook the place of the publication or the name of a translator. Even though it contributed to the completeness to this bibliography, I am unable to name these small sources because it would have make the source index more comprehensive than this bibliography.
The most important sources:
- Worldwide
- UNESCO Index Translatonium
Translators – all languages – all countries.
Not complete but informative especially about small countries.
- Library Thing
