Library Resources

Animated Atlas of African History 1879-2002
This map gives a year-by-year presentation of selected themes in the history of Africa between 1879 and 2002.

Literature and Culture of Francophone Africa and the Diaspora
This bilingual site features selected Internet resources on primarily Francophone African & Diasporic cultural expression. Created in partnership with the Department of Africana Studies, the Department of French  Studies, and the University Library, it is featured in the bookmarks collected by the Bibliotheque Nationale in France.

Liberation Journals Index
An analytic, searchable, online index covering the interwar Pan-African periodicals La Revue du Monde Noir, Légitime Défense, L’Étudiant Noir, the wartime Tropiques, and the postwar Présence Africaine, as well as the Québécois journal Liberté. This index was originally conceived both as a public research tool and as a practical component of Meadow Dibble-Dieng’s dissertation, a comparative study that considers the various ways in which literary periodicals have served in liberation movements throughout the Francophone world.
