Illustration

A guide to library resources for Illustration students.

Welcome

Welcome to the Illustration Research Guide. This guide covers a wide range of available resources such as useful books, links, and digital resources.

Keep in mind that research is an iterative process; it will build on itself and is often better accomplished in multiple small steps. Art is often an interdisciplinary area of study so some resources might seem more relevant than others. This guide cannot list all possible resources, but it is a good place to start. If you have more questions or need additional help, just ask! There are librarians available to help you find answers.
