Library Guides

Our Guides are divided into two groups, Subject Library Guides and Course Library Guides. Select a Subject  from list below to find stuff in the Library and online tailored to specific interest or discipline.  Select a Course Guide for information about specific classes. These Guides are always being improved so be sure and let your Librarian know about any items in the Library or sites on the internet that you find really useful.  Check out these guides for useful class information:

Start With The Library

Often the best place to find information is your Library. Start with the Library Catalog.  Be sure to search under both “Subject” and “All words” in the right hand box on the search page, next to the box for your search word.  Great sources for journal articles and high quality images of artworks are the online databases which are on the Find Images & Articles page of the Library website

For information on our databases, tips on searching, or an overview of the Library Catalog, take a look at our growing collection of online tutorials produced right here at the Library.  You can find them on the Library How-to Videos and Frequently Asked Questions pages along with lots of other useful Library information.
