Resources for graduate students in English

Comprehensive Dictionaries

Print Dictionaries

The PE1600 call numbers in LOVE Ref and in LOVE include numerous dictionaries. 

You can identify many dictionaries by using the Libraries' Advanced Search to do a SUBJECT search on English Language -- Dictionaries.

If you want dictionaries that include a foreign language, add the language to the Subject search. 

For example:  English Language -- Dictionaries -- Dutch.
