Theatre: Finding Books

► The Classic Library Catalog search is the most efficient way to find books (print & electronic) that Fordham definitively owns. 

 Looking for ebooks only? Select the "Online Resources" option under the library dropdown limiter before you press Search in the catalog:

► OneSearch aggregates books Fordham owns plus some articles from databases. It also includes bibliographic records for content that Fordham does not own.

Use the Library Catalog to focus on books that Fordham owns.

Plays & Anthologies

To find individual plays, plays within anthologies, or works by a particular playwright in book format, try the following:

• Search by the name of the play in the Title field (i.e. "Uncle Vanya")

And/Or

• Search by playwright name in the Author field (i.e. Chekhov, Anton)

• See the Finding Primary Sources page for additional tips for finding plays.

Criticism & Interpretation

To locate criticism or interpretation of the works of specific playwrights in book form:

• Search the playwright name in the Subject field.

Find items outside of Fordham with WorldCat / OCLC FirstSearch, a platform searching across the largest network of library collections around the world.
