Who ever thought criticism begins online?! It now does at Chabot!
The Library is always looking to improve its online presence with full text resources, and this year with respect to English 4, the popular course of the Writing and Critical Thinking requirement for General Education, we have purchased a great number of E-Books so that everyone now has unlimited simultaneous access to more books devoted to literary criticism.
These are in addition to our main database of literary criticism, Literature Resource Center and journals in Academic Search Elite.
Through Literature Criticism Online, Short Story Criticism presents critical views on the most widely studied writers of short fiction. Each volume includes overviews of three to six short story writers, works, or topics and a historical survey of the critical response. The Library has gotten all 150 volumes online and will be getting all future volumes in this format.
The Library has also purchased around 900 books in Gale Virtual Reference Library devoted to literary figures and literary criticism, including the entire Twayne series, spanning 860 E-books devoted to individual authors and works.
The Library has purchased over 40 additional E-books on literary criticism devoted to individual authors and texts in the ABC-CLIO ebook collection.
For the above, all individual texts are also in the Library Catalog. So students can find both our print and online texts of criticisms devoted to individual literary authors!
Finally, for students that want to find full-text poems and short stories on particular subjects or by authors, LitFinder provides it easily, including some works with copyright permission to appear here. It also provides indexing information to print materials.
Great literary critics abound online!
