EconLit

The American Economic Association’s electronic bibliography, EconLit, indexes over 120 years of economics literature from around the world. Compiled and abstracted in an easily searchable format, EconLit is a comprehensive index of journal articles, books, book reviews, collective volume articles, working papers and dissertations.

EconLit has now added indexed records for journal articles from 1886-1968!

EconLit is available at libraries and on university Web sites throughout the world, licensed from information service providers, who provide search engines, links to libraries’ full-text subscriptions, and other enhancements to assist users in document retrieval. It is available as well to AEA members only through EconLit for Members.

EconLit for AEA Members

If you are an AEA member and would like to access the EconLit Search Engine, login using your AEAweb username and password. EconLit for AEA members contains all the EconLit records, but does not have links to full-text journal articles and books available on library installations. It does not provide the full-featured bibliographic search experience found on the institutional search platforms. It is a tool for members who do not enjoy institutional access to EconLit.
