The Women's Studies Librarian's website,  links to Research Resources on Gender and Women's Studies. Some of the specific sections include resources for women's history, women's literature, women's health, international topics, statistics on women & gender and more resources for research. There are also sections on organizations, women and popular culture, and media.

Feminist Collections: A Quarterly of Women's Studies Resources (also in GenderWatch), New Books on Women, Gender, and Feminism (a bibliography of book information; the citations are also in Women's Studies International database) and Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents (useful to browse to see what's been published recently in about 150 feminist/gender periodicals -- can help in choosing course paper topics!)and WAVE: Women's Audiovisuals in English, a database of information about women-focused videos and DVDs, some of which are on campus. Look the video/DVD titles up in Madcat.
