In almost every instance, the poems in question were published by an amateur, or vanity press, poetry publisher. By far the most common question I receive, however, comes from people trying to find poems that they wrote, submitted to a poetry contest, and subsequently had published in a poetry anthology. The questions I receive tend to cluster around two or three major categories, such as how to find literary criticism on a novel and how to locate the full text of a poem without knowing its title and author. One of my jobs as a digital reference specialist is to answer questions submitted through the Poetry and Literature Center’s Ask a Librarian form.
Poetry Contests, the National Library of Poetry, and Amateur Poetry Anthologies
