Library Resources

Emory has strong and wide-ranging collections — monographs (books, print, and electronic) and journals — in all major subfields of Economics and is always looking to improve our print and digital collections in specific areas within Economics, as needs and demands arise or may require. Please also inquire about data needs that you may have.

Woodruff Library's Liaison

Chris Palazzolo is the Woodruff library's liaison to the Economics department. He is available to assist faculty, graduate students, and Economics undergrads in any and all aspects of their research and teaching.
