Some anthologies have their contents listed in the FRANCIS record for the book. In these cases, you can identify the anthology by searching for the title and/or author as keywords.
Examples:
Keyword search: "Caucasian Chalk Circle"
Keyword search: Roosters and Sanchez-Scott
Note: this search may find critical essays about the play in addition to the play script.
Many anthologies, especially older ones, do not have the contents listed in FRANCIS. Some other sources to try include:
WorldCat
