African American Art: a Guide to Resources: Finding Articles in Journals

This guide serves as a starting point for researching African American art using MSU Library resources.

Finding Articles

Listed in the box at the right are a few periodical indexes useful for finding articles on African American art and artists. Use the index to find articles of interest, then check the MSU Libraries' catalog to determine if we have the journal or magazine in which the article was published. These indexes are available from the MSU Libraries' E-Resources page.
