Welcome to the guide for Classical Studies!

I hope that you will find this guide a useful starting place for your research in Classics. I have assembled a core collection of resources available through the Wayne State University Library System, as well as high quality, freely available web resources. This guide is a collaborative work-in-progress, developed with the suggestions and feedback from students and faculty in Classical Studies.

I am available by appointment to assist students and faculty with research related to Classics. You may also contact me to schedule research workshops for classes or to suggest items for purchase.

Copies are available in the reference collections of the Purdy/Kresge Library and the Undergraduate Library with the call number DE 5 .O9 1996.
