LITERATURE - SPECIAL TOPICS
The Literature Resource Center of the Gale Publishing Corp. includes biographic and bibliographic information on almost all authors, as well as the full texts of criticism from a wide variety of resources and websites. Gale has purchased Twayne's and Scribners' author series, and this information is likewise included. To locate from the Library Webpage, choose 'L', then 'Libraries', then BCPL, then 'Encyclopedias, Magazines, and Newspapers', then 'Literary Databases', then ' Literature Research Center'. This is the best single source for criticism of individual authors. NB: you may also locate this resource from EPFL. For both, you must have a borrowing card, and be able to input your zebra code number from that card.
