Bibliographic database

A bibliographic database is like a big library, but online. It is a collection of information about books and other documents that can be searched and accessed through the internet. The database holds information like a book's title, author, subject, publisher, date of publication, and any other relevant information. It's like an online library that you can use to search for and find books, articles, and other documents.
