Okay I'm totally clueless... can anybody help me with how to lay my hands on someone else's dissertation? I've searched the MLA database today and found two very interesting papers I'd love to check out but I just can't spot them for the love of God... The only graspable reference I find is "Dissertation Abstracts International"... *meep*

Well I used the MLA database at your library. In a way it IS online, but you have to subscribe to it.

What's MLA?

Erm uh... arglebargle... It's a database... and it lists lots of articles and essays written on various subjects. And it's the number one reference you turn to when looking for stuff for your paper re: American literature. But I have no clue what it stands for ^^;.

Oh, I see. Thanks for explaining.
