Something about the Author Online

There was a time when it was only possible to search printed volumes of the Gale journal Something about the Author (SATA). Now for the first time, with the advent of digital technology, Something about the Author is available online to subscribers. Not only does this make it possible to search a database of over 19,000 biographical, autobiographical, and obituary entries for information on children’s book authors and illustrators, but it does so in a way that makes the information far more accessible to a far wider audience than ever before.

Search for information, store it, share it, and use it for research purposes. For students, researchers, and academics SATA Online provides a wealth of material for presentations, papers, and more just waiting to be discovered at the touch of a button and the click of a mouse.

More importantly this is a resource that continues to grow and is constantly updated with entries for new and emerging talent. SATA is an indispensable reference resource not to be missed.
