Finding Shakespeare in the Library

When searching for works written by Shakespeare or criticism about his plays and poems, it is important to use the library catalog to find the exact location of books. The catalog will also tell you if a book is checked out. 

These books are located on the 2nd floor of the Tunxis Library in the "PR" section of the book stacks (see map.)
