"The chronological scope of the DIB extends from the earliest times to the twenty-first century. The living are not included. Biographies range in length from 200 to 15,000 words, covering diverse figures across a broad range of human activity from scientists to sportspeople, suffragists to soldiers. Launched in 2009 after many years of research by hundreds of contributors, the DIB’s online edition now features nearly 11,000 lives and continues to grow. The DIB regularly publishes new entries on important figures who have died in recent times, and on ‘missing persons’: previously overlooked figures deserving fresh interest." [self-description]
