Search Strategies
What do you know about searching databases?

Remember: Words Do Matter When Searching ARTstor
Searching for images using words can be difficult – mixing information media Reliant on another person’s
description of the image or item and the vocabulary they choose
Metadata for items in ARTstor vary in quality and quantity

Plagiarism
“the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own.”
“Whether quoting, paraphrasing, or using others’ ideas to advance their own arguments, authors should give explicit credit to the source of those words or ideas. This credit often takes the form of a formal citation incorporated into a note or parenthetical reference.” Chicago Manual of Style, 13.3
