    Some of Gale’s Literature databases are now cross searchable? Go to any Gale Literature product – like Literature Resource center.  Click on the “Change Databases” link in the upper right hand corner. Scroll down about half to the “cross-searchable” section. One of the links is:

    Literature Criticism Online, Something About the Author Online  Apr 2009

    Cross-search two or more of Gale’s literature archive resources, including Dictionary of Literary Biography Complete Online, Literature Criticism Online, and Something About the Author Online. These award-winning and long-standing literature series are delivered in an easy-to-use 24/7 online format that matches the exact look and feel of the print originals.

    Do you think we should add a link to our Databases A-Z list for the cross searchable platform of Gale Databases?
