  1. This is a good project; helpful to research students and scholars. Sometimes, though, it is impossible to find adequate bibliography of certain ressources. This happened to me and my graduate students as regards a chapter from a PhD thesis. The chapter (2) has a title ” Globalization and Literature”, but neither the name of the author nor the title and bibliographical data of the thesis are given!?
