"The Warder of Knowledge" is a Cthulhu Mythos story by Richard F. Searight, unpublished during his lifetime. Lovecraft read the story, saying of it: "I like the story exceedingly." It was first published in the 1992 mythos collection, TALES OF THE LOVECRAFT MYTHOS.

In pursuit of omniscience, Professor Gordon Whitney dares to summon the ageless Warder of Knowledge, and finds that some secrets are guarded by horrors beyond human imagining.
