How to Find the Publisher of a Book

Question

I’m trying to learn how to find the publisher of a book, especially when the author doesn’t clearly mention it online. I want this information for research, rights inquiries, and understanding how books are published. Can anyone explain the easiest and most reliable ways to find a book’s publisher, both for physical books and ebooks?Any step-by-step guidance would be really helpful, especially for beginners. Thanks in advance!

I totally get the struggle of tracking down a book’s publisher! Tunnel Rush, I tried to find an out-of-print novel and ended up in this rabbit hole of online searches. Sometimes local libraries have great resources or can help point you in the right direction, too!
