IMAGE RESEARCH GUIDE

This guide will provide information for searching for, sharing, presenting and managing images.

Citing Images

The following link takes you to a site with great examples of how to cite images using Chicago Manual of style in your papers.  You can also consult the Chicago Manual in sections 12.31 - 12.51 for directions on how to write captions and credit lines.

JSTOR and Local Images/Media

JSTOR is now more than just journals.  Via this database you have access to thousands of images, audio, and video (in relation to books and periodicals)  related to a variety of disciplines in addition to art, art history, and classics.  This is also the place to gain access to our licensed images from Archivision, Inter-American Institute, Scholars' Resource as well as locally produced images for the Teaching Collection.  You can also access licensed films in on JSTOR.

 

NOTE: "Users can create a registered user account when accessing JSTOR from a valid IP address (either on campus or through a proxy server - VPN). Each registered user account allows for one year of Remote Access during which it may be used to access JSTOR from any computer. Each time a user logs in to his or her account from an authenticated IP address, the one-year period is reset."
