Cross-search multiple literary source databases with Gale Literary Sources
Focus of this database is short biographies, but it also has news articles (including interviews) of more recent authors, plus book reviews.
Book reviews
For book (and movie and play) reviews, start with library search, since it will pull things we own the full text of from across a lot of our databases.
Covers 1903 to 1982. You will need to use "check availability" to see if we have full text. Some things we may only have in print or you will need to request via interlibrary loan.
