There is a cart full of books and encyclopedias for use on this project. Other classes need these books, so please do not walk off with them.
 * III. BOOKS **

Check the index--alphabetical listing of topics covered--at the back of the books in order to find out where to look for information on specific topics (ie. Locke, John).

Encyclopedias are arranged alphabetically, so for information on John Locke, you will need the volume that has all the words beginning with the letter L.
