Library Guides: Apparel, Merchandising and Design (AMD) Research Guide: Home

About This Guide

This LibGuide is designed to direct users in Apparel, Merchandising, and Design to various resources and services. While much of its content comes from the library's core holdings, it also points users to auxiliary items and services from reputable external sources. These resources have been selected with a generalist approach, making the LibGuide an invaluable gateway for users with varying levels of need and different areas of focus.
