Finding Poetry

The Heartland Community College Library has a growing physical collection of poetry. Below you will find some examples of the poetry available, as well as tips for how to search for poetry in the collection. Poetry is not shelved in a specific section; instead, poems are shelved by the name and nationality of the author of the poems. By searching the catalog, you can obtain the location of available poetry books. 

Use i-Share, the library's catalog, to search for poetry books. You can further refine results, if needed, by using the filters on the left-hand side of the search screen. To only view results for physical books at HCC, select "Held by library" under availability. 

Scroll further down this page for more specific searches for poetry.
