This document is the second version of my annotated bibliography for Samuel R Delany. Since the first version I've added a lot of new information (especially concerning the various editions of each work) and have reorganized the bibliography to make it easier to read. Comments on the new format are welcome, as are corrections and additions to the listings.
I believe that the bibliography is now more or less complete. Its main omission is that it does not list Delany's numerous appearances in science fiction magazines, scholarly journals, and other periodicals. When I gain access to other, more detailed Delany bibliographies I will attempt to fill in this remaining hole in the bibliography.
I am aware that many of the detail entries are still sparse. I appreciate the time that many of you have spent to send in jacket copy and comments on this bibliography. I'm hopeful that the evolving state of this document will make you feel as if your efforts have been rewarded.
