The breadth of coverage is unparalleled. As a tool in the field of African literary studies, it is indispensable, as an exercise in organization and what is termed "bibliographical control" it is breathtaking... Making the pre-eminent bibliographical resource in African literary studies available electronically is perhaps, a dream. I would not want to give up the print version, for it really is a resource where browsing pays off often in unexpected and most delightful ways, and despite the quibbles, there is no better resource available, not one I would trust more. - Mark L.

It is the consummate working tool for researchers, scholars, teachers and students in the field. RESEARCH IN AFRICAN LITERATURES ... one of the most valuable tools for research in the field of African studies.
