(Modern Language Association) International Bibliography
The MLA International Bibliography is a subject index for books and articles
published on modern languages, literatures, folklore, and linguistics. It
is produced by the Modern Language Association (MLA), an organization dedicated
to the study and teaching of language and literature. The electronic version
of the Bibliography dates back to 1963 and contains over 1.6 million citations
from more than 4,400 periodicals (including peer-reviewed e-journals) and
1,000 book publishers. It is compiled by the staff of the MLA Department
of Bibliographic Information Services with the cooperation of more than
100 contributing bibliographers in the United States and abroad. Such international
coverage is represented by literature from Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe,
and North and South America, and while the majority of records are from
English-language publications, at least sixty other languages are represented
including French, Spanish, German, Russian, Portuguese, Norwegian, and Swedish.

Library Collection Policy Statement for Theater
Note:
The number of books and serials were calculated by combining the title count
from the Library of Congress Classification areas GT1580-1799, MT955-960,
and PN1560-3299. The figures are based on the 1997 North American Title
Count (University of Hawaii at Manoa Library) and active serial subscriptions.
