To the mystery lovers:
The head of Cataloging here at Clemson, Marsha McCurley, maintains a fun
site at www.bibliomysteries.com. The site contains bibliographies of
mysteries that have settings, plots, or substantial characters in them
related to the world of books, writers, archives, and libraries.
