English: Resources for English Studies @ J. E. Smith Library 

Your tuition dollars pay for our very expensive databases.  They contain reliable and helpful information so they are well worth using!

If you are using our databases from anywhere other than the Eastern campus, you will have to enter your University ID number and library PIN CODE. 

Click on this PIN CODE link for instructions. 

Search the ECSU Journal Locator to find out what journals are available to Smith Library researchers, whether in print or online.  The Journal Locator provides links to both full-text journals in databases and individual online journals (if the library has a subscription). The Journal Locator’s link for print holdings takes you to the CONSULS record, which indicates what years and issues of the journal the library owns.

English Journals in Print: Current issues of journals and magazines are shelved on the 2^nd (main) floor of the library, and older, bound issues and microforms (microfiche or microfilm) are on the 1^st floor, behind the Curriculum Center. They are shelved in alphabetical order by title.

Looking for journal, magazine, or newspaper articles? 

You will find articles, many full-text, by searching in our subscription research databases. In addition to articles, these databases include references to book reviews and essays that are included in anthologies. This is usually a better place to start academic research than a general web search engine such as Google or Yahoo or Wikipedia.

Be sure to scroll down on this screen to see all the information included.

Recommended Databases

They are recommended, but they are not the only databases.  Be sure to check our entire database list, and try a few others too.

If you are using these databases from off-campus, you will be asked to provide your University ID number and library PIN Code. Need help setting a library PIN or if you have forgotten what it is, click on this library PIN Code link for help.

The MLA International Bibliography
The MLA International Bibliography is the key database for literature studies, widely referred by professors of English. The MLA International Bibliography (MLAIB), published by the Modern Language Association, covers scholarship published since 1963 in literature, linguistics, folklore, literary theory and, since 1998, rhetoric and composition. It is also an important resource for the non-technical aspects of theater and film studies, cultural studies, critical theory, and the history of printing and publishing. MLAIB does not cover scholarship in Greek, Latin, and other ancient languages and literatures. Only bibliographic citations are included; there are no abstracts. Citations are primarily to journal articles, books, essays in multi-author collections, dissertations, and conference proceedings. Book and performance reviews are not included. Coverage for the years 1921-1962 is available only in print and the Library has 1969-1987 and 1989-1991 in Reference Z7006.M64. The electronic version offers easy searching by keyword, author, and subject (characters, literary themes, etc.).

• Additional information about the database from the Modern Language Association
• Why Is Searching the MLA International Bibliography Better Than Searching Google?

Electronic Enlightenment (EE) is an online gateway to the 18th century, an innovative resource that began as a research project of the University of Oxford. EE provides access to the web of correspondence between the greatest thinkers and writers of the 18th century and their families, friends, bankers, booksellers, patrons, and publishers. The earliest letter currently in EE was written in 1619 and the correspondence extends into the middle of the 19th century. There are documents from North America, South America, Europe and Asia.

19th Century Masterfile
A collection of indexes to over 1 million citations from newspapers, periodicals, books, and government documents written before 1920. Indices included: Poole's Index to Periodical Literature 1802-1906, Stead's Index to Periodical Literature 1890-1902, and others. Indices range from late 1700s through early 1900s. Each Periodical Index covers a different range of titles, in total, approximately 1500 titles.

Black Drama
Black Drama contains the full text of nearly 1,400 plays written from the mid-1800s to the present by more than 200 playwrights from North America, English-speaking Africa, the Caribbean, and other African diaspora countries. Many of the works are rare, hard-to-find, or out of print. James Vernon Hatch, the playwright, historian, and curator of the landmark Hatch-Billops Collection of black drama, is the project’s editorial advisor. More than a quarter of the collection will consists of previously unpublished plays by writers such as Langston Hughes, Ed Bullins, Willis Richardson, Femi Euba, Amiri Baraka, Randolph Edmonds, Zora Neale Hurston, and many others.

Each play is extensively and deeply indexed, allowing both keyword and multi-fielded searching. The plays are accompanied by reference materials, significant ancillary information, a rich performance database, and images. The result is an exceptionally deep and unified collection that illustrates the many purposes that black theater has served: to give testimony to the ancient foundations of black culture; to protest injustices; to project emerging images of the new Black; and to give voice to the many and varied expressions of black creativity.

The database covers key writings of the Harlem Renaissance, works performed for the Federal Theatre Project, and plays by critically acclaimed dramatists of the 1940s. The collection includes musical comedies, domestic dramas, folk dramas, history plays, anti-slavery plays, one-act plays, and other works. Many were published in a wide range of magazines and anthologies, others have never before been published or performed.

Students and scholars will have immediate access to plays addressing a wide range of struggles and triumphs, including migration to Northern cities, mothers’ keeping families together, exploitation by white land owners, interracial unity, racial violence, civil rights activism, and the black war hero.  Help

Black Short Fiction
Black Short Fiction is the most comprehensive collection of African and African-Diaspora stories yet created. When complete, it will feature the English-language literature of more than 15 countries, along with francophone authors from Africa and the Caribbean. In addition, the collection will include literature in languages that have their origins in African countries and are still present in some regions today, such as the Gullah language of South Carolina.

Within its 100,000 pages, which comprise an estimated 8,000 works, Black Short Fiction will include short stories published from the mid-1900s to the present. In addition to these published works, the database will feature previously uncollected works and unpublished manuscripts by many authors. We will have an impressive collection of fables and folktales, which arise from the oral traditions of many peoples and date back many hundreds of years. Researchers will be able to follow their development in both Africa and the New World.

Black Women Writers
Offering fiction, poetry, and essays from Africa, North America, Europe, and the Caribbean, Black Women Writers brings together more than 100,000 pages of literature and essays written by black women from African and the African Diaspora. Many of the writings have been hidden in rare and hard-to-find texts, obscure typewritten documents, photocopied journals, and other fugitive sources.  The writings present the woman's perspective on the diversity and development of black people generally, and in particular the works document the evolution of black feminism.
