Database Trials
"The database covers fine, decorative, and commercial art as well as photography, folk art, film, architecture, and much more. In recent years, its coverage of Latin American, Canadian, Asian, and non-Western art has expanded greatly, along with its material on new artists, contemporary art, exhibition reviews, and feminist criticism. More than simply a resource for art students and art historians, Art Full Text rounds out the research experience for those studying other fields, such as women’s, media, or cultural studies, history, anthropology, industrial design, and more. The variety of periodicals covered means that there is also much to interest the casual user who just wants to learn about art." -Excerpt from H.W. Wilson's promotional site. Trial period ends March 31, 2010.
