Hesburgh Libraries

Italian Studies

Italian Studies promotes scholarship in the history and culture of the Italian peninsula, broadly understood as extending from ancient Rome, through the Middle Ages, and up to the present day. Collection materials span books, periodicals, electronic databases, music, and film.

Additionally, the Libraries' Department of Rare Books & Special Collections holds one of the premier collections of Italian literature in the United States. These materials may be accessed within the Specialized Collections’ Reading Room on the ground floor of the Hesburgh Library.

The interim librarian for Italian Studies, Julia Schneider, provides consultations to students and faculty in one-on-one, small group, or classroom settings. Her expertise includes finding and evaluating sources and working with primary source materials.
