The good news is that we still have much of the content from the DLB through Gale's Literature Resource Center http://rdl.lib.uconn.edu/databases/1508. If you are linking to the Dictionary of Literary Biography, please change your links so that they go to Gale's Literature Resource Center; read more about the LRC at http://www.gale.cengage.com/product_pages/lrc-tips.htm Please also let me know if you'd like the database description for the Literature Resource Center to be modified.

Dictionary of Literary Biography
Just wanted to let everyone know that we no longer get Gale's Dictionary of Literary Biography as a standalone product. It has been suppressed in the ERM and in Homer, which means you can't find it if you search for it. However, if you have a link to its entry in the RDL on another web page, the link will still work -- but you will get an error when you click on the database itself.

I should probably fix the RDL to do something "better" for resources that are hidden from the public. Maybe display the terms of use page (which will likely include a message about why the resource is hidden) and disable the "connect to database" link?
