Cannon Memorial Library's Online Library Resources
E-resources are available through CML! Remember, try using a scholarly E-book in your paper! We looked at the Oxford Encyclopedia of British Literature (E-reference resource) during the Library Instruction, but there are so many more to look at as well.
Also, we searched MLA International Bibliography through the EBSCOhost database.
Finally, we looked to see if we carried the full-text of a journal, Eighteenth Century Fiction, through the A-Z Journal List. Here is the result from that search:
| Eighteenth-Century Fiction | |||
Publisher: University of Toronto Press Subject: Language and literature -- Literature (General) -- Prose. Prose fiction |

Go to EBSCO's Academic Search Premier Package, and put this journal title in the Advanced Search, plus a keyword.
