Welcome

This guide has been designed to give you easy access to the resources most frequently used for literature. You can use the tabs on the top of the page to access specific resources. Those resources include:

Reference Sources - For background information, definitions, and basic facts, consult the encyclopedias, dictionaries, and sourcebooks listed on this page. They are located in the Reference section on the first floor. Reference items are for use only in the library. Literature reference materials can be found in the PN - PS sections of the collection. Ask a Reference librarian for help, if needed.
