Oxford Classical Texts, or Scriptorum Classicorum Bibliotheca Oxoniensis, is a series of books published by Oxford University Press. It contains many of the best-known texts of ancient Greek and Latin literature, such as Homer's Odyssey and Virgil's Aeneid, in the original language with a textual apparatus. Works of science and mathematics, such as Euclid's Elements, are generally not represented. Since the books are meant primarily for serious students of the classics, the prefaces and notes are in Latin, and no translations or explanatory notes are included.

Those who want some help in reading the classics may prefer the Loeb Classical Library, which includes English translations, or the Budé series, which includes French; see below.
