Recorded Yale lecture courses with free syllabi and transcripts. Lecture transcript pages import well when you're studying a subject end to end.

Full lecture transcripts paired with a syllabus fit a notebook built to study a subject the way a semester course would teach it, section by section, rather than through scattered articles. It suits topics where working through an instructor's own structure and argument matters more than the newest research. The courses were recorded some years back, so fast-moving subjects may need newer material alongside the transcripts.

## Import into Gemini Notebook

1. Copy the link: https://oyc.yale.edu
2. In your notebook, click Add source → Website.
3. Paste the link and confirm — several links can be pasted at once, one per line.

**Tip:** Lecture notes and open textbooks are the highest signal-to-noise sources for studying — often better than the slides you were given.
