As promised, I compiled all of the responses I received to my original request for
printed resources on fairy tales that high school students could use in completing
a research project. As I thought, real hard copy resources are not in abundance,
but thank to everyone who suggested alternative sources. If anyone else has
suggestions, I'll be happy to hear them!

Original TARGET-->Fairy Tale Resources
"Hi, this is Karen DiGiorgio. I would like to TARGET-> Fairy Tale Resources. Our
10th grade English classes do a research project each year where they analyze a
fairy tale and then turn the analysis paper into a research paper by adding
biographical information on the author and literary criticisms on the tale. I'd
like to find out what resources others on the LM_Net listserv suggest our Library
Media Specialist order to allow students to best complete
the project. If people will respond to me, I'll compile your responses and post A
HIT-> on Fairy Tale Resource Books back to the entire LM_NET. Please send responses
to karen.digiorgio@nn.k12.va.us.
HIT:
The best on line resourse I've found is

As I librarian who absolutely loves books, I must say for this one I think I would
rely upon the Internet. This area is an avocation area for me, and I've explored
it extensively. I have found such wonderful, free resources online, and other than
my personal books of Grimms, etc I
would be able to follow this project start to finish using the Internet.
Just do a search using an education-focused search engine such as www.vivisimo.com
I'm trying my posting again.
