Abstract: We study generalized log-sine integrals at special values. At $pi$ and multiples thereof explicit evaluations are obtained in terms of Nielsen polylogarithms at $pm1$. For general arguments we present algorithmic evaluations involving Nielsen polylogarithms at related arguments. In particular, we consider log-sine integrals at $pi/3$ which evaluate in terms of polylogarithms at the sixth root of unity. An implementation of our results for the computer algebra systems Mathematica and SAGE is provided.
