Visual Art Resouces for IB

Finding Books in the Fisher Library

Use the library catalogue to find books. Start with a keyword search. When you have found a useful title click on the hyperlinked subjects on the catalogue record to find other relevant titles.

Art books in the Fisher Library are kept in several locations.

Books less than 27 cm high are kept on the non fiction shelves.

Art books which are between 27cm and 36cm tall and have call numbers between Q 700 and Q 759.999 are kept in the Quarto Art collection near the tables.

Q 760- (graphic arts - printmaking), Q 770- (photography) are on the Quarto shelves which are at the end of the non-fiction collection.
 

 If you need help please ask the library staff.

Inter-Library Loans

We are able to obtain books from other universities through inter-library loans. As there is a charge to the library for each book, please choose carefully. 

Ask Lee Allen  (leea@ggs.vic.edu.au) in the Fisher Library if you wish to order an inter-library loan.
