A bibliographic database containing Jean-François Lyotard's publications. The Wellek Library Lecture Bibliographic Collection is part of the CTA Zotero Bibliographic Database. This database allows visitors to gain access to bibliographic content connected to both the Critical Theory Archive at UC Irvine and ICCTP at UC Berkeley. The reference libraries housed within each identify critical resources for the field on various topics. Its goal is to contribute to international efforts to develop convenient, integrated discovery points for access to scholarly collections. These open-source bibliographic databases also serve as an essential tool for the curricular development of critical theory within a global frame. The bibliographies were compiled by UC Irvine research librarians and updated by UC Irvine graduate student researcher Jessica Ziegenfuss.
