This guide is curated to help students navigate information and resources in Anthropology.
Use the "Searching for Information, Materials, and Resources" tab for an overview on how to begin your research in anthropology. It'll cover examples of search terms you may use, what kind of materials the library has, what resources the library has, and what other outside resources can be helpful for your research.
For specific subject information use the tabs between "Archaeology" and "Museums and Organizations." Each of those tabs has library materials and other resources for each subject collected for your use.
