Welcome to the Jewish Studies Research Guide

This guide shows the best places to start your research in Jewish Studies. Access tools to find background information, books, articles and databases, useful websites, and citing and copyright tools.

Use the tabs at the top of the page to start your research

Every subject area has a LITS liaison who specializes in the technology tools and library materials used in that discipline. Don't hesitate to contact any liaison to request a reference consultation or a bibliographic instruction session at the library for your class, ask a research question, or to suggest purchasing books or other materials to add to our collection.

Janet Ewing is the LITS liaison for Jewish Studies
and is here to help with Jewish Studies research

Important Scope Note: For many topics, the best resources may not be ones specific to Jewish Studies, but ones specific to the discipline associated with the topic or figure you are researching. For example, Grove Art Online is good source for biographical information on specific artists. For more information about specific databases and reference works, consult the Research Guides or discuss your topic ideas with any reference librarian.
