Anyone studying the history of Scottish music will at some stage need to find out who published what, and when. 

There is a vast amount of information out there!  The National Library of Scotland contains many priceless original music books, but they also actively curate and compile useful indexes to help you find accurate historical information.

The Scottish Book Trade Index is online, and includes music publishers as well as the people who published books:-
