Subject-specific indexing allows you to quickly and easily find the articles you are looking for on sepulchral culture, even in literature outside your field. Of particular note are the numerous historical sources and funeral sermons housed in the library's stacks. We maintain a subscription to approximately 50 journals, providing answers to questions concerning sepulchral culture.
