Women’s Studies Core Books

http://digicoll.library.wisc.edu/ACRLWSS/

The Women's Studies Core Books database is a project of the Association of College & Research Libraries -- Women's Studies Section. Book titles currently in print are selected by academic librarians who volunteer to maintain a subject area. The project assists Women's Studies librarians and collection development librarians in building Women's Studies collections and can also serve as a guide to instructional faculty in selecting available course readings.  General Editors:  Cynthia Johnson (cjohnso2@pratt.edu) and Carrie Kruse (ckruse@library.wisc.edu)

Many of these materials are in the ASU Libraries collections, and can be located by searching the ASU Libraries Online catalog

This site contains a slightly expanded and fully searchable version of the print publication American Women: A Library of Congress Guide for the Study of Women's History and Culture in the United States (Washington, D.C.: Library of Congress, 2001). The publication has been redesigned for online use, with added illustrations and links to existing digitized material located throughout the Library of Congress Web site. These materials are supplemented by a small number of newly digitized items that provide a sample of the many relevant types of materials available in Library of Congress holdings. In addition to the Research Guide, the gateway home page also provides information regarding preparing to do on-site research at the Library of Congress; tips on searching for women's history resources in the Library's catalogs; guidance on finding materials relating to women within the Library's American Memory collections; and helpful orientations to women's history sources in the Library's online exhibitions and audiovisual Web broadcasts of lectures, readings, and symposia.
