Need to pick an author for a report but don’t know where to start? Gale Literary Database(link), found under Contemporary Authors, is a great way for students who have an idea but need help narrowing down their choices.
A useful feature in Gale Literary Database is the “Dictionary of Literary Biography.” It allows users to find authors by browsing:
- genre
- topic
- age
- nationality
