Art Practice: Overview

This guide is designed to steer the Art Practice student to Library resources that pertain more specifically to their concentrations. If you are conducting research for a course outside of your department (e.g. Liberal Arts), a different guide may be appropriate. The Library staff is also committed to helping you one-on-one, ordering material for your research, and considering all purchase suggestions.
