You can always click on the physical link and search for the large print copy from there. As always, if you need help finding a version of a title, we are here to help!
If you prefer a paper bibliography, we have formatted versions of our virtual book displays ready for you to download. The paper bibliographies are available in the library and have a quick description of each book.
