Infotrac: Expanded Academic Index UW Catalog Plus Menu [1980-] Although a general index, Infotrac's Expanded Academic Index is a great source for contemporary coverage of American authors, in both scholarly journals and magazines. This a particularly good place to start if you are researching a popular, contemporary author who may not yet be included in MLA. Expanded Academic is also a great source for critical reviews of contemporary works, often in full-text. MLA International Bibliography UW Catalog Plus Menu/Silver Platter [1963-] A "must" for anybody wishing to engage in literary research, MLA provides extensive indexing of scholastic writings for American and world authors. Although it does not provide abstracts or full-text entries, it can often locate hard-to-find articles, and is particularly useful for students wishing to retrieve articles which encompass more than one subject area, or subject areas too new to be indexed in print formats.

FREE WITHIN OURSELVES: Fiction Lessons for Black Authors
We build our temples for tomorrow, as strong as we know how, and we stand on top of the mountain, free within ourselves LANGSTON HUGHES "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain," The Nation (1926)
(from, FREE WITHIN OURSELVES) "Good writing demands your whole self - writing freely, without limits, from your unique connections to your world. As an African American, you have incredible riches to draw upon, including a bittersweet history which created a new ethnic group capable of transforming heartache into art."
Jewell Parker Rhodes Author Dr. Jewell Parker Rhodes, professor of American literature at Arizona Sate University and recipient of the National Endowment of the Arts Award in Fiction, offers help to artists and visionaries in Free Within Ourselves: Fiction Lessons for Black Authors. Not only is Free Within Ourselves a top-notch writer's guide filled with practical guidance, essays, journal exercises and resources for publishing fiction, it is also a celebration of African American identity, culture and art. "Never (in four years of college or five years of graduate school) was I assigned an exercise or given a story example that included a person of color. . While the educational system and the publishing world have become progressively more welcoming of African-American authors, there is still little attention to educating, supporting, and sustaining the writing process of African-American authors," Rhodes explains in her introduction. Now, for the first time, Free Within Ourselves offers a step-by-step guide to fictional technique and publishing know-how, tailored to the specific needs of African American writers.

Introduction
Online Catalog Reference Collection Bio-bibliographical sources ... Citing Sources
Introduction Literary criticism is the evaluation of literary works. Literary criticism can take several forms. A criticism can compare a literary work with other works published during the same period. A criticism can compare one work of an author to other works also by that author. A criticism can compare a theme in the literary work of one author to the literary works of other authors who use the same theme. Most literary criticism is published in scholarly journals that are available primarily in print. Very few scholarly journals on literary criticism exist in electronic form. back to top Online Catalog Subject search option to find books about the author’s work.

I. Poetry Reviews and Criticism (Finding articles which discuss a Poem) It is not always possible to find critical articles that discuss every poem by every poet, even in the case of major poets. In those instances where an individual poem may not be explicated (analyzed), it is often possible to find articles that discuss the poet's themes and style more generally, and this may be relevant to discussion of the poem in hand.

Burdex This is intended to be a bibliographical guide TO reference materialspoints of departures, etc.rather than books ABOUT African American women. It includes mostly items that are regularly found in college or university libraries, as well as in some large/main or central branches of public libraries. No Attempt has been made to list every reference source on African American women. The intent is to cite and annotate those major items that will facilitate one’s research on African American women. One important key to understanding and using the CSUN library - in fact any library - effectively is the catalog. The catalog is the source wherein one is able to find the holdings of the library listed by author’s name or title, and also subject matter. This would be true if you’re searching for full length books or monographs. If however, you are searching for periodicals at CSUN, you would only be able to search by
