Welcome to the Global Resources Center's research guide on Korean studies. The Global Resources Center (GRC)’s Collections of Korea materials are being built to offer specialized research services tailored to the needs of researchers who are interested in the current affairs, politics, economy, culture, foreign relations, and the national security of Korea.
The GRC focuses primarily upon the political, socio-economic, historical, and cultural aspects of countries and regions around the globe from the 20th century onward. This guide aims to connect you with selected resources related to Korea in both English and Korean. Some of the resources listed are available online or can be found in paper format in the Gelman Library of the George Washington University. Some resources require a login if used off-campus and are available for GWU patrons only. Note: Some external Korean sites require Internet Explorer for best performance.
When searching for Korean Studies material, either Korean script (한글) or the McCune-Reischauer Romanization system can be used. For more tips on using the Romanization system, check out the followings:
