Leolaia
I don't have any real good links (aside from really outdated 19th century stuff), but the seminal papers are:
T. G. Pinches (1897). "Notes upon some of the recent discoveries in the realm of Assyriology," Journal of the Transactions of the Victoria Institute, 39: 45-89.
M. C. Astour (1966). "Political and cosmic symbolism in Genesis 14 and in its Babylonian sources," in A. Altmann (ed.), Biblical Motifs: Origins and Transformations (Cambridge: Harvard University Press), 65-112.
J. A. Emerton (1971a). "Some false clues in the study of Genesis XIV," Vetus Testamentum 21: 24-47.
----------. (1971b). "The riddle of Genesis 14," Vetus Testamentum 21: 403-39.
Andreasen, N-E. A. (1980). "Genesis 14 in its Near Eastern context," Scripture in Context (ed. by C. D. Evans, W. W. Hallo, and J. B. White). Pittsburgh: Pickwick Press, 59-77.

OK next dumb question. You often refer to papers but just how does a person locate these? Astour's article was briefly commented on in one google result but it wasn't helpful.
