FYI, Literature Resource Center was a great place to send the student and is probably the best place to start, but I'd hold off on recommending JSTOR for literary criticism. If a student wants criticism or work overviews or something to give them a leg up on a difficult text, I'd suggest the following resources in this order:<BR/><BR/>(1) Literature Resource Center<BR/>(2) Literature Criticism Online<BR/>(3) CUNY+ search (author name AND criticism)<BR/>(4) Gale Virtual Reference Library<BR/>(5) MLA International Bibliography<BR/><BR/>Most of what our undergraduates might need that is in JSTOR will be adequately indexed in MLA. The older articles in JSTOR that aren't indexed in MLA are probably beyond the needs of our undergraduate students.Stephen Francoeurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00209647273501419193noreply@blogger.com
