Scope of Pathfinder

 

This pathfinder was created to act as an introduction to the literature and resources available about exhibition design in art museums.  The intended audience is UNC Chapel Hill, UNC Greensboro, Duke or NC State graduate level students in the enrolled in museum studies or related art or design programs, who have a specific focus or interest in exhibition design within art museums.  The resources selected in this pathfinder are located within the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill campus.  The three libraries that house these resources are Davis Library, Sloane Art Library and Information and Library Science (SILS) Library.  Types of resources include guides, encyclopedias, dictionaries, bibliographies, monographs, abstracts and indexes, journals, glossaries, directories and web sites.  The monographs will provide information about exhibition design exclusively, while many of the other types of sources will provide essential information such as art terms, art institutions worldwide and related aspects of museum studies.
