In recent weeks, the Libraries have added several fascinating and useful online tools to the growing pool of resources available to the WUSTL community.
The Berg Fashion Library (Oxford University Press) is an online resource now available through the catalog, databases, and Fashion research guide. Featuring fully cross-searchable text and images, it covers world fashion and dress, from pre-history to the present day. The collection includes the Berg Encyclopedia of World Dress and Fashion online, ebooks, reference works, images, and much more. More information about the content is available here.
Oxford Bibliographies Online (OBO) – Renaissance and Reformation is also newly available online. OBO Renaissance and Reformation is a tool to quickly find significant and reliable resources (reference works, books, journals, archives, websites, and more) on selected topics in history and culture from the 14th through the 17th centuries. Articles are written by well-known and respected scholars, including Washington University’s Barbara Murphy Bryant Distinguished Professor of Art History, William Wallace (see Michelangelo Buonarroti). Updates and new entries will be added on a regular basis. To learn more, visit About OBO. WU Libraries also subscribe to OBO Islamic Studies and OBO Social Work.
