It is not intended to be exhaustive since many bibliographies repeat the same items. No attempt bas been made to cite the count- less single collections of poems because numerous checklists and specialized bibliographies are available. Moreover, most anthologies, critical studies and histories list individual collections--in selected bibliographies and biographies. Since many Black poets publish privately or with small and relatively unknown publishing houses, the student will want to examine listings and reviews in Black periodicals (Black World, Journal of Black Poetry, Freedomways, Black Books Bulletin, Black Creation, CLA Journal and others). Some Black publishing houses print title listings on the inside covers of their books. Scores of records and t pes of readings, films, broadsides (single poems), pamphlet publicati ns and tracts are also available from individuals or small publishing houses. Recently, such large recording companies as Folkways, Flying Dutchman and MoTown have begun to record and distribute Black Poetry. However, the task of locating and developing a checklist for the myriad publications and publishing activities of Black poets still awaits some serious student ot Black literature. For con- venience, a list of Black publishing companies is included at the end of this bibliography. �I BIBLIOGRAPHY GENERAL RESEARCH AIDS Adams, Russell L. Great Negroes, Past and Present.
