Play Collection
In addition to books in the stacks (see below), the library has a collection of plays that are in "pamphlet" format located behind the Reference Desk area along the wall across from the photocopy machines. The plays are shelved alphabetically by the author's last name. Remember to check the library catalog (Voyager) for a specific title or author for which you are searching.
