The oldest area studies bibliography, the Handbook has been issued annually since 1935, with volumes alternating between coverage in the social sciences and humanities. The print format, though not as current, offers the advantages of ease of browsing. Bibliographic and "state of the research" essays precede each discipline chapter.
HLAS Online includes all published volumes as well as newer content at a “preliminary editorial stage,” meaning citations may be incomplete, and frequently lack annotation. The introductory essays for volumes 1-49 of the Handbook are also searchable in HLAS Online. To search only the essays, use the "Annotation and HLAS Chapter Introduction" field in the Expert Search form.
