High Museum of Art Power Users

High Museum of Art and the Emory University Libraries have a MOA that allows several HMA staff to have access to Emory resources for their research needs.

CHANGE - New Emory policy

Your remote access to electronic library databases will end on July 18, 2016.  Nothing else will change.  You can still use the same username/password to request books and inter-library loan material. 

Emory University, like many of our research university peers, has implemented a Library Licensed Electronic Resources Conditions of Use Policy http://policies.emory.edu/5.22  which only allows current Emory students, faculty, and staff to access electronic databases remotely.   This restriction is a protective measure to minimize risk for the University. 

  • Walk-in use for library databases will still available after July 18th. All High museum of staff can use the databases at the Woodruff Library (sign-in at reference desk)
  • Kim Collins remain your subject librarian – please contact her whenever you need a research consultation. 

Sources to Find Academic Articles

  • Search one of the library's 400+ databases
  • Databases like JSTOR and Academic Search Complete provide citations and/or full text of journal articles, books, and other materials. Emory University Libraries pay for access to the contents of more than 400 databases. See our Databases page for a list of databases.
  • Search Google Scholar
    Google Scholar searches specifically for scholarly literature, including peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, preprints, abstracts and technical reports from all broad areas of research.
