KU Libraries
Over
many years, the East
Asian Library and Murphy
Art and Architecture Library at the University of Kansas
have built major collections with an emphasis on the arts of China
and Japan. Currently both libraries are also increasing their holdings
in Korean art and related fields. All of the major Asian art journals
in Western languages, Chinese, and Japanese are available. Art books
and journals in East Asian languages are housed in the Murphy Art
and Architecture library. To check the holdings of these libraries,
consult the KU libraries' online
catalogue.
Nelson-Atkins Museum Library
The
substantial East Asian collection of the Spencer
Art Reference Library at the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas
City, Missouri, is another invaluable resource available to KU students.
The
combined holdings of these libraries make it possible to do advanced
research in both Chinese and Japanese art at the University of Kansas.
Any materials not available locally can be obtained through KU's
efficient system of interlibrary loan. |
