A New Era in Literature Studies

Research isn’t linear…it’s a circle. With every search, users hope to find another kernel – that “a-ha moment” – that will guarantee them a high grade on a paper or a top-notch preparation for a presentation or book club meeting. These collections of content form what we call “The Circle of Literature” – a ring of the highest caliber literature content available anywhere.

Thanks to the dedicated services of more than 200 Gale literature editors, The Circle of Literature keeps growing, as we add new features like our robust cross-search capability, and new collections, like Literature Criticism Online – the world's largest curated collection, extensive compilation of literary commentary. At Gale, we are building The Circle of Literature as the definitive suite of products, choices and options for you and your library.
