Architecture Library
Find Articles and Databases

Finding articles is often a two-step process: 
  1. Find the article citation in a database such as the Avery Index to Architectural Periodicals

  2. Check CardCat or use the Find It @ BSU button to see if the journal is in the University Libraries.
Be creative when searching a database:

  • Use keyword searches to find the subjects that will pull together articles on your topic.
  • Look for the "index terms," "search terms," or "descriptors" that the database uses to assign subjects to an article and use them in your search strategy.
  • Search for multiple forms of architect, designer, firm, building, and site names.
