The primary purpose of this research guide is to assist researchers interested in comparative literary studies in conducting research using Yale Library's resources and services. The cross-national and interdisciplinary aspects of Comparative Literature make it a very broad field, and while you will find a variety of frequently used resources in this guide, the the list of sources is suggestive rather than comprehensive. If you are working primarily in a different language or national literature, you may wish to take a look at the Related Guides section below.

The library is here to help! If you have a research-related question, or to schedule an appointment with the subject librarian, use the email function and calendar scheduler in the Librarian box below.
