Subject Specialist Directory-Detailed List of All Subject Areas

Subject Specialists are available for advanced research consultation. Your first stop for research should be the Information Center. You can also send your reference questions electronically.

You can also see condensed lists of subject specialists: by name (PDF), and by subject (PDF), as well as a two-sided handout in PDF format that includes both lists.

The following list of subject specialists is arranged alphabetically by subject area. To find out more about each of these subject areas, search the Research Subjects A-Z pages. These pages are listed by subject and by type of collection. They include substantial information on how to research the Stanford Libraries' collections, what you can expect to find in the collections, and links to online resources.
