The Chicago Homer, ed. by Ahuvia Kahane and Martin Mueller.  "The depth and sophistication of The Chicago Homer is truly remarkable. It is simply the best digital resource on early Greek epic available."  ( Quote from reviewer, F. A. Grabowski, Rogers State University)

Catalogue

Article Databases can be general or specific to a subject:

When information is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized, the source of that information must be documented. Otherwise, you are guilty of plagiarism. To help you in avoiding this offence, see this tutorial. 

Information about people can be found in books, journals, and websites. To find books, do a Subject search in the Library Catalogue for a specific individual (e.g., Thucydides). or do a Keyword Search using a combination of terms appropriate to your search (e.g. classic, ancient, biograph). For information on people in ancient times, check encyclopedias or special biographical dictionaries for specific entry names.

When you are doing research on a topic, you will often encounter unfamiliar terms, or familiar ones used in a specialized way. DICTIONARIES can provide a quick definition and often some elaboration on the uses of the term. ENCYCLOPEDIAS provide background information on unfamiliar subjects, leading you quickly to key ideas and sources in developing your topic. Many encyclopedia articles will also include brief bibliographies which will lead you to further sources of information. Material in the Reference area (REF) can be used in the Library -- but can not be borrowed.
