LIBRARY RESOURCES FOR YOUR RESEARCH PAPER

Writing a formal research paper requires finding appropriate scholarly articles, peer-reviewed journal articles and books. Sources such as blogs, newspaper articles, unauthorized websites, random papers uploaded to the internet, random YouTube videos, Wikipedia and encyclopedias (including Grove Art Online) are not appropriate resources to cite in formal research papers. However, since you are unable to go to the library in person because of COVID-19, you will be limited to online resources such as journal articles and digitized books. You will want to select a well-known photographer who is the subject of considerable scholarly research– otherwise you may have difficulty finding an adequate number of resources.

Your research materials should largely be procured from Davidson Library, and you will note that Chizu Morihara, our Art & Architecture Librarian, has created a special page for Art 1A Visual Literacy (my Art 130 students use the 1A library page as well).
