This is the literature you don’t have in your library through other online resources—in copyright, contemporary, global, and diverse. Rich in sociological and historical significance, Alexander Street Literature delivers the literatures of place, gender, and race. With new content added on a regular basis, the current package will grow to more than 600,000 pages of poetry and prose. Students and scholars of literature, history, diversity studies, politics, transatlantic studies, postcolonial history, geography, cultural studies, and anthropology can now explore these important works that have previously not been available.

Vast and continuously growing, Alexander Street Literature celebrates the creative achievements of authors from around the globe, including the broad literary output of Africa and its diaspora, Latin America, the Caribbean, Asia, Europe, and other regions—along with the North American expressions of this rich world heritage. Included is all the content in these Alexander Street collections: Latino Literature; Latin American Women Writers; Black Women Writers; Black Short Fiction and Folklore; South and Southeast Asian Literature; Caribbean Literature; Scottish Women Poets of the Romantic Period; and Irish Women Poets of the Romantic Period. Additional collections may be added over time.

Free trials are available.
