This bibliography is highly selective. With a few exceptions, it cites only items quoted from or referred to in my text. For a more complete listing of books, articles, theses, and clippings that are part of any research into Montgomery’s life and worldwide influence, go to the bibliography I prepared for the L. M. Montgomery Research Centre at the University of Guelph <www.lmmrc.ca>. That bibliography is maintained and updated by the University of Guelph library.
I have also excluded from the list below most of the massive body of literature on literary, Church, and Canadian history, as well as material from such contextualizing areas as book publishing, popular literature, feminist studies, and cultural theory. Also excluded are books and articles, both historical and contemporary, on mood disorder, manic-depression, and other psychiatric disorders, which are easily located in libraries or on the Internet. However, some lesser-known references of a general nature which are neither on the Internet nor readily accessible in most libraries but which provided useful background information are cited (e.g., materials relating to Montgomery’s Scottish and English ancestors and cultural heritage, her early reading, and recent articles in forensic pharmacology). Some of this material is located in the University of Guelph Scottish Collection of rare books, a partner to the L. M. Montgomery Collection.
The bibliography also excludes scores of documents, booklets, letters, e-mails, and interviews assembled over the years, unless these are specifically cited or referenced in the text. Most of these items relating to Montgomery and her milieu, which have been gathered over a thirty-five-year period, will be donated to the University of Guelph Archives, where they will be catalogued and eventually opened to later researchers.
A longer chronology of Montgomery’s life, as well as a list of her published books, can be found online at the University of Guelph website. A bibliography of all of the known editions of Anne of Green Gables is in preparation by Bernard Katz and will appear later on the University of Guelph website. An invaluable list of her books and translations, poems, and stories is in the Russell, Russell, and Wilmshurst Preliminary Bibliography (1986), which is now being updated by Benjamin Lefebvre and will eventually be available through a link from our website. Scholarly publications on Montgomery’s writing (including theses), as well as newspaper and magazine items, are constantly being added to our website at Guelph. Many links to other sources of information about Montgomery are also there.
