Black Women Writers Trial

TU Libraries is currently trialing a new electronic resource, Black Women Writers.

Black Women Writers is a far-reaching full-text database devoted to black women writers from Africa, North America, Europe, and the Caribbean, spanning over 200 years. Containing popular and hard-to-find collections of fiction and poetry, as well as narratives and essays by famed and lesser-known authors, the texts present snapshots of black women’s struggles through time as they encounter slavery, colonialism, and racism.

The trial ends on November 30th and is password-based. Questions about the password or comments in general can be directed to devoek@temple.edu.
