Literature Resource Center is a gale database that is included with T.E.L. This site is real useful for students looking for author biographies and literary critiques. I've used this database a lot, especially when high school or college students come in looking for literature reviews on a certain work.
The thing I like most about this site is the searching capability. For instance, you can limit an author search by nationality, ethnicity, genre, literary movement, time period, and theme. For example, someone could come into the library looking for information on journalists associated with yellow journalism. Using Literature Resource Center, they could get a list of authors associated with yellow journalism and their biographies, work overviews, and bibliographies attached.
