Abbott ENGL 1102: Library Resources

When typing your short story title into the search box, remember you can search for more than one thing at a time.

Includes full-text articles and books for those studying theatre and the performing arts, and contains author supplied abstracts and keywords, and author affiliations.

Keep search terms (words you put in the search box) brief. Put "Our Miss Brooks" and if you'd like to add a second search term, add a theme or literary device after the AND. Example: "Our Miss Brooks" AND "gender"

When searching for Our Miss Brooks, remember it was a radio show first and later on a film. Knowing when the TV show aired as well as making sure the articles are talking about the television show (which will usually be pointed out in the title) is important. 

The New York Times is the origin of the movie review and criticism. You can search for review articles on any film or show in this database.

Includes women's studies topics such as the historical changes in gender roles, a theme often seen in many 1950's television shows

Great for exploring characters' actions and traits through a psychological lens.
