Welcome to UEA Library. The purpose of this guide is to highlight resources that will help you with your studies or research and to give you further support if you need it.
Anthropology is taught within the Department of Art History, part of the School of Art history, Media and American Studies (AMA) and also within International Development (DEV).
Please contact your relevant Academic Librarian (below) if you need further help in finding or using Anthropology resources.
The Library Helpdesk can help with simple queries and are the best people to contact about using the library building, booking study spaces, accessing electronic resources and finding and borrowing print books. I can provide more in-depth support, either via Email or at Drop-ins or 1:1 meetings. Please get in touch with me to find out more.
Most of the Library's online resources will require a UEA log-in, but we have some content you can access before you join the university.
There are tens of thousands of books and journal articles related to Anthropology available via Library Search. Here are some other resources you may find useful.
I strongly recommend you install the Library's Lean Library web browser extension. This helps connect you to library content when you're searching the Web or using Google Scholar or other online databases. It can help trouble-shoot if you are not automatically signed in via UEA.
UEA subscribes to cite them right, which provides help and tutorials on many of the main referencing styles used at UEA. Use this to learn how best to reference books, articles (along with more tricky formats) and to double-check references you download from Library Search or Google Scholar are correct.
This video provides a three minute walk-through of the library and its services.
Start your journey provides a range of videos and other resources that help you get familiar with the Library and how to use it.
The Library has joined with the Learning Enhancement team (LET) to produce a guide for tackling your first assignment. Well worth checking out.
