It’s baseball’s Spring Training season in Florida these weeks and I hope you’ve been enjoying the Detroit Tigers’ games in Lakeland. If you are interested in baseball research, the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) has made its index public in February. The Baseball Index (TBI) is a free catalog to baseball literature. It encompasses books, magazine articles, programs, pamphlets, films, recordings, songs, poems, cartoons, advertising, or anything else that may be of interest to the baseball fan or researcher.
As an index, the Baseball Index does not contain the full-text of the sources referenced. But you can use the USF catalog for books and journal titles, or the Citation Linker for articles citations, to see if we have the resource you need. If we don’t have, it may be available through interlibrary loan (ILL).
