Locating Shakespeare at Trexler Library

How to find the Bard's works as well as books about them.

Shakespeare in other call numbers

Previously we stated that you can find *almost* all books about Shakespeare in the Dewey number 822.33.

BUT (you say) "I've found a book about Shakespeare in the catalog with the call number 792.028 R687s... What gives?"

See the examples that follow for some of the many situations in which books about Shakespeare may be located in call numbers other than 822.33.

(By the way, 792.028 is the number for 'techniques of acting and performing'.  The book is about 'how to speak and act Shakespeare')
