"Although our collection extends beyond Shakespeare, his works are the centerpiece of the Library—and the cornerstone of its existence. A great deal of our world-class collection is devoted to his plays and poems, which we have in copies ranging from their earliest printings to the most recent editions. Researchers at the Library can consult everything from 16th-century printed books to 20th-century theatrical ephemera."

"Our aim is to inspire a love of Shakespeare's works by delivering ... resources with the highest standards of scholarship, design, and usability."

The site integrates the full text of the plays and poems with the entire Glossary database, allowing you to search for any word or phrase in Shakespeare's works, and in particular to find all instances of all words that can pose a difficulty to the modern reader.

Loads of great information on Shakespeare, his writing, the Globe Theatre, language, and much more. Additional Shakespeare links are also included.
