Circulation staff is available to assist you with general questions on how to find and use library resources. The professional librarian can provide more in-depth assistance in the use of the materials, databases and the collection as a whole. The librarian can also provide instruction, orientation, and training to individuals and classes.
Some older periodical indexes, available in print format only, remain in the library but most tools are now available via the computer. Indexes to the contents of a broad array of periodicals are listed in the Research Databases link on the UW Libraries Webpage. Periodicals having online content are also listed there under the Electronic Journals link, but titles with an electronic format also have direct links in their regular catalog records. The Websites link, above on this AUP Libraries Webpage, lists selected databases most relevant to Architecture, Construction Management, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Design and Planning.
If you are having trouble locating the resources you need, the library staff is available to assist you. You may also make an appointment with the Librarian to discuss your research needs in more detail.
