Academic & Library Resources

This page collects inks to various resources of interest to those who study or teach comics in the classroom or manage library collections. Two more significant collections of links may be found at the web sites of the Comics Scholars Discussion List (primarily designed for the study of comics in the classroom) and National Association of Comics Art Educators (primarily designed for the teaching of comics ["how to"] in the classroom). If you have suggestions for more resources to list here, please contact us.
