Tips for Searching for Bibliographies or Review Articles in MLA Bibliography
These are not fool-proof ways of finding review articles or bibliographies, but they may help you narrow the search. 
  • Type your author or subject on the first line, then type bibliography on the second line and change the field to genre/classification.
  • Type your author or subject on the first line, then type review article on the second line and change the field to Subjects-All.
Tips for Searching for Bibliographies or Review Articles in Other Databases
  • If you’re using Onesearch, after completing the search, go to Source Types and check Reviews
  • If you're using EBSCO Academic Search Complete, change the Document Type to Bibliography or Literary Criticism.
  • If you're using ProQuest Research, type review or bibliography and change the field to document title.
Tips for Searching for Bibliographies or Review Articles on Web Sites
In a web search engine such as Google or Duck Duck Go, you can type the name of your author and the word bibliography.  Example: Chaucer bibliography.
