Africa at the Internet Archive: Spreadsheet (9)

Here is the second spreadsheet update of 2022; you can read about the evolution of this spreadsheet project in the previous updates. There are now over 9400 stories listed from over 350 different books and articles, and I'm getting near the end of indexing all the stories I can find at the Internet Archive, so in February I'll be moving on to a related project: indexing African American and Caribbean stories, which is perfect for Black History Month (observed in the U.S. during the month of February).

Meanwhile, as always, you can access the spreadsheet here: African Tales Spreadsheet, and also by the link in the tab navigation above.

In the spreadsheet, you'll find links for each story to the Internet Archive page, plus links to versions of the stories that I've written (more about those tiny versions of the stories here: Africa.LauraGibbs.net).


As I've explained in previous posts, you can do searches and create data filters, and you can also copy the spreadsheet for your own use. For example, I have my own copy of the spreadsheet where I keep track of which stories have animals, stories I want to use for a "tiny tales" project, etc. etc.

These are just a few of the books I've indexed since the last update; the links below go to the book at Internet Archive: enjoy!
