Welcome to "Books and Places"
The spot to find other interesting sources for information concerning the Underground Railroad and related topics.  All of these books/journals can be found in the Millersville library.  All titles listed with "Sp.C." will be kept on the fourth floor in Special Collections and can not be taken out of the library.  All other titles can be borrowed via inter-library loan or with a student I.D. card or library card.  Contact one of the front desk attendants to make arrangements to borrow books from the library.  Information on inter-library loans can also be found on the Millersville University homepage, Happy Hunting!!  I hope your experience visiting this website has been as enjoyable as was mine finding the sources and creating the site.
