Click on the links below to view the full-text of these recently published articles.
These links will take you to a listing of available issues of several fashion-related periodicals. Once you see the listing of journals by date, clicking on any date will take you to a listing of articles available full text in that issue.
The following databases will help you find videos and articles for animation. You will find plenty of animation trade information here (industry news, interviews, tutorials, information on technique). For scholarly articles that look at animation history and theory from a more academic point of view, you may not find quite as much but there are still several tricks you can use to dig up quality sources. Contact a librarian for help if you are having trouble finding what you need!
While many of your search results will include "full-text" (meaning the actual article, not just a summary/abstract), others have only an abstract. So, what do you do when you find an article that is exactly what you need, but the database does not have PDF or HTML links for the full text?
If this happens, look for this icon:
That button will search all of our other databases, and our print periodicals too, and tell you if the article is available through our library (and where to find it).
If you get this message:
this means that the library does not have access to this article at all. If that happens, you can still request the article through Interlibrary Loan and we'll get it for you from another library. Just click the "Request this item" button, or fill out a blank form here, or ask a librarian for help.
Well-written blogs and websites can be used the same way you'd use a trade or scholarly article from the library. Here are a couple examples of excellent sources of animation information on the open web:
