Reliable Websites

When researching art history outside of the library's databases, focus on resources from art museums, galleries, universities/colleges, and online collections curated by artists and art historians.

[Pro Tip: when searching for information on Google, add "libguide" to your search string. This will generate results that include resources usually curated by librarians and can generally be trusted as reliable sources.]
