Where are the books?
The Loyola Library catalog includes a variety of resources, including books and print journals, but where do you locate the physical item in the library?
Cudahy Library, on the Lake Shore Campus, contains the print collections for English. You can find:
- Print journals, including Illustrated London News and The Graphic, on the lower level
- Reference materials on the first floor, in the reference collection (Stack Deck B)
- Books on the second floor
- Rare books on the second floor, in the Archives and Special Collections reading room (accessible by appointment).
Loyola uses the Library of Congress classification system; materials on language and literature are located in Class P in the following call number ranges, if you would like to browse the stacks:
- PE: English language
- PN: Literature (general)
- PR: English literature
- PS: American literature
