Extractions: See also guides on Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual Studies African American Studies Asian American Studies Chicano/Latino Studies ... Native American Studies , and Women in Society , plus the Feminist Studies Collections Web site Women writers are included in general reference works on literature.

Finding current information about lesser-known Asian American, African American, Hispanic American, and Native American women writers is especially difficult. Since few specialized sources exist for these groups, try works on women writers and titles that examine the literature of minorities or a specific ethnic group. General bibliographies and guides can help you identify books and articles on a subject. Many of the following include short descriptions called annotations. Feminist Writers Feminist Companion to Literature in English: Women Writers from the Middle Ages to the Present (Green Library Information Center PR111.F45 1990) short biographical/critical entries on women writers writing in English until 1985, including many lesser known writers.
