In addition to its expansive historical resources, the Folger also maintains a sizable collection of modern materials. These include scholarly works, reference resources, ongoing monographic series, and current periodicals (mainly found in the open stacks on Deck B); audiovisual materials and microfilm; and rare modern books, designated for their production quality or rarity, or for their value as artifacts of Shakesperiana (such as the "Sh.Misc." collection).
