·   “Perspectives” sections.  These groupings shed light on the period as a whole and link with immediately surrounding works to help illuminate a theme.
·   “…and Its Time” sections.  These shorter groupings show major works in the context of their own era.  For example, "Pepys Diary and Its Time.”
·   Rich illustration program.  An unrivalled collection of both black-and-white and color illustrations include portraits of major authors as well as images to illustrate artistic and cultural developments.
