So this is more of a question on my part than anything else, but how do you handle searching for plays or monlogues when a student comes to the desk?
I had a student today who was looking for a monologue, but then also needed to read the entire play for her class. Finding monologue books is easy, but I was having a hard time locating books of plays (and of course we don't own any of the plays she was looking for by title). We ended up locating a section of books with plays, and just browsing there until we found a couple books that looked passable, but I can't help but feel this isn't the most efficient way to search.
Any suggestions?

If they need to find the complete play ... hmm, I don't know anything more efficient than what you describe. The plays are scattered throughout the lit sections by nationality and period.
On the positive side, I have never had that question - it has always been "where are the monologues? Quick, quick!" and they usually are happy with those collections created for this purpose shelved in the PNs.
