UW Writing

Hello UW Writing Students!  Here I have gathered some sources that might be helpful in your quest for information related to Joan Didion's Sentimental Journeys.  This is by no means a definitive list of sources for you, but this should provide you with a great starting point.  As always, if you have questions, please ask!


Kennedy Paid Databases:  The following are the databases I suggest using for your research on this project.  You are obviously able to use ANY of our databases, but I have done a cursory search for your needs on the following two.

Instructions: To access each of the following databases, you use our school's username and password.

ProQuest Research Library   I highly suggest you check here first -- there is a News & Newspapers section in which you can search articles on the Central Park Jogger and other similar cases.

History Study Center Here you will find both primary and secondary sources, including maps, journals, letters, diaries, and videos.  ProQuest is probably the better source for newspaper articles, but the HSC certainly has great material as well.


General Resource


Internet Archive was founded to build an Internet library. Its purposes include offering permanent access for researchers, historians, scholars, people with disabilities, and the general public to historical collections that exist in digital format.
