Dear ARLIS,
Thank you for ALL the replies to my question. Several people asked me
to post the list--so below are 9 helpful suggestions. I will pass them
all along to the student. Thanks again, Kim Collins

With English equivalents, useful for students preparing for graduate

9) That sounds a lot like a pamphlet I used to use that was an aide for
art catalogers. If you put dictionaries--polyglot—art into WorldCat,
you’ll put up similar stuff.
Quoting Kim Collins <[log in to unmask]>:
> A student writes.."Years ago I was given a Xerox from a dictionary of art
> historical terms, which I seem to have lost. I can't seem to find any
> reference to the source or anything similar and wonder if you might be
> familiar with it. It was a French/Italian/German/English dictionary of art
> history terms. Now that I'm cramming for my German exam it would really
> come in handy!"

> Sounds like this could have been an appendix of a larger reference book - If
