Encyclopedias in the Library

Use these books (and other reference books), found in the Reference Collection on the ground floor of the library, as a starting place for your research.  They are a good place to:

  • find background information on your photographers
  • get book lists ("bibliography" or "references")
  • research country, period, style, contemporaries: what was/is their life like?
