Welcome Back! Here's how to find us.

Greetings, and welcome back to NSCAD for the Fall 09 semester. If you're new to NSCAD, and haven't yet checked out the Visual Resources Collection, please come in for a visit. We're located on the 3rd floor of the Duke Street building, just left off the elevator.

We've got lots of new additions to our DVD library, including a full run of the films of Andrea Dorfman, a set of early Robert Frank films, and a well rounded selection of French New Wave films. Among other new additions, we have a set of documentaries by Aboriginal Canadian filmmaker Alanis Obomsawin, (read about her ), and a set of 4 films by British dramatic-documentarian Peter Watkins.

Highlights of our digital resources include, of course, our newly-acquired access to the million plus image collection ARTstor, available on and off-campus, (http://www.artstor.org) and the Wilson Art Museum Image Gallery (available here: Wilson Art Gallery )

Other new additions to our image research links are the fantastic Victoria & Albert Museum image collection: http://www.vandaimages.com/index.asp , and the site 'Imaging The French Revolution (http://chnm.gmu.edu/revolution/imaging/), which is an excellent resource for those of you enrolled in 19th Century Art History.

Take a few minutes and come visit us, we look forward to meeting you!
