Use LINUS, the Library's catalog to find books, E-books, videos and other materials that LMU owns or has on reserve. Use the dropdown to change the kind of search you want to do. If you search the phrase Rabbi Michael A. Signer Collection in the Keyword mode, you will get a list of the books acquired and cataloged from this collection. To search for books written by Rabbi Signer, change the dropdown to Author, and type (or copy and paste) Signer, Michael Alan into the box above and click on the Search button. (Of course, there are lots of essays and chapters in other books edited by others, so don't think we have only eight of his writings!)
Necessitated by the relatively small 'footprint' of the Hannon Library and the need for group study rooms, much of the collection is in Basement Storage. This designation does not imply any negativity regarding quality! Most graduate level monographs and many good books at the undergraduate level are in Basement Storage, as they are used less than the books shelved on Level 2 and Level 3. Basement Storage books are retrievable for guests as well as the LMU Community. A bonus: books in Basement Storage are in a much more tightly controlled environment regarding temperature and humidity, which means they will last longer!
Here are listed just a few examples of the almost 2100 books acquired by the William H. Hannon Library from Michael Signer's legacy. To see the complete list, type or paste "Rabbi Michael A. Signer Collection" into the keyword search box to the left. Note: some books are already checked out; others are in process or being repaired.
