NEW DATABASE: Latin American Women Writers

We now have access to Latin American Women Writers 
from Alexander Street Press. 

"Latin American Women Writers is an extensive search-able collection of prose, poetry, and drama composed by women writing in Mexico, Central America, and South America. Also included are essays by Latin American feminists and revolutionaries, who address both the universal concerns of women in every age and the distinctive issues of their struggles in the region. New content is uploaded on a biweekly basis, giving users immediate access to a steadily growing treasury of extraordinary writings. The database currently features 36 plays and over 52,000 pages of prose."

This resource has been added to the Research pages  and is attached to the Latin American and Caribbean, Women's Studies, Literature, and Theater subjects.  http://library.fiu.edu/tabid/380/Default.aspx?letter=l&ResourceID=630&SubjectID=68&ResourceTypeID=2
