A New Play Every Month
American Theatre magazine publishes a brand-new full-length play every month. You can find the latest issues of AT in our first-floor reading room; older issues (starting in 1990) are on the ground floor.
AT is also available online via Ebsco (starting in 1995).Click here and log in using your Hollins username and password.
Using OneSearch
When searching OneSearch, avoid using "Title" searches. Search the words that make up the title of your play in Books (results will include e-Books).
Search Tips
- Not sure of the whole title? Search just using a few key words:
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
- Common one-word title, zillions of results? Add AND + the playwright's last name:
Wit AND Edson
- Common multi-word title, still zillions of wrong results? Put exact titles in quotation marks:
"In the Blood"
