For information about additional resources on mass media and communications at the Library of Congress, consult its online catalog (http://catalog.loc.gov). Within the Library of Congress, the Newspaper & Current Periodical Reading Room has an online search facility to discern what newspapers are available for consultation in that reading room: http://www.loc.gov/rr/news/fncr.html.The most important source for bibliography of books and articles concerning the Dominican Republic is the annual Handbook of Latin American Studies (http://lcweb2.loc.gov/hlas/) produced by over 130 contributing editors under the editorship of the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress. Additional coverage of journal articles can be found through a subscription to the Hispanic American Periodical Index (http://hapi.gseis.ucla.edu/).   Both the Handbook and HAPI are available in selected libraries in book form.   One of the major aggregators for links to a wide variety of subjects relating to regional resources for Latin America is the University of Texas' LANIC (http://lanic.utexas.edu/la/ca/dr/). Another site one should especially note is the site prepared by the Law Library of the Library of Congress for international and multinational information on their Guide to Law Online (http://www.loc.gov/law/guide/dominican.html).
