When I was in Texas we put together a very
basic ‘Find Images’ guide for undergraduates (not focusing on art)
that is linked at http://www.lib.utexas.edu/students/find/findimage.html.
Note that it also links to a selected list of ‘Image Collections’
on U.T.’s ‘Databases & Indexes” page at http://www.lib.utexas.edu/indexes/titles.html?type=Image%20Collections.
But my main reason for writing is to remind you consider including the
Avery Index to Architecture Periodicals since it is still the best way to track
down specific types of images such as axonometric views, elevations, sections, aerial
photos, plans, site plans, etc., of course with a focus on architecture &
related subjects. And I would also suggest not just including ARTstor,
but also JSTOR since that way you can track down images in both of these
sources at once. And don’t forget the image search capabilities in
general databases such as Academic Search Complete.

Hello Everyone,
I am putting together a handout on how to find images
electronically. I have included all the obvious resources, including art
databases with search capability for reproductions, ARTstor, Index of Christian
Art, etc. Sites like the ULS Digital Library (Pitt's) that includes
D-Scrieb with several image collections, NYPL Digital Collection, American
Memory at LC, ULS Media Services which houses films, videos, and DVDs of video
and performance art, Internet Metasites, Museum web sites with collection
search functions, sites for contemporary artists, net art, and Youtube.
Do any of you know of online exhibitions I can
include? I already have the Vatican Exhibit and sites for various
international art exhibitions. Any other important ones?
Is there a category I have missed?
Has anyone done such a guide for library users? If so,
would you be interested in sharing it with me?
Thanks so much, in advance, for any help you can provide me.
