Welcome to all the new and returning Harvard students. This document is designed to help you locate books for your Harvard Core Courses. Books are listed in two ways: by course and by author. Each list will provide you with the title of the book, and let you know in which section the book is located. If you have any questions about where to locate that section in the store, please ask one of the booksellers at the information desk for help, and they would be happy to assist you. Books are generally arranged by author within a section, and shelf talkers will help you locate the book on the shelf. Again, please ask for help if you have any problems locating a book.
As memebers of the Harvard Book Store community, you join an impressive group of scholars, activists, and free thinkers. Good luck in the upcoming semester, and we hope to see you often!
