* October 1, 2015: "Works" (v1) published.

This project is currently under development, so anything can still change. "Works" (v1) was completed in October 2015. "Days" (v1) was completed in 2016. Work on the selected bibliography will run throughout 2017, leading to a second-edition of ''Norman Mailer: Works and Days'' that was just published. That said, many links may be broken to sources not yet entered. Any comments, questions, or suggestions may be submitted via our Contact page or tweeted to @drgrlucas (#MailerWorks).
The volume of reference to Mailer grows, if not exponentially, then constantly and quite rapidly. We are confident that the forthcoming accretions, and the inevitable omissions, will prompt future addenda and corrigenda to this project. We request that you help us with your comments, corrections and discoveries. Have something to share? [[User:Grlucas|Contact the editor]] to participate.
