Doctoral Research in Arts Administration
activity 2.3:
Equity and Library Access

Instructions: Alan Bilansky’s article on research and library databases, the longest and most academic reading assigned in this micro course, delves into deep questions on library access. To close out this section on YOUR local library for your PhD, our last activity invites you to enter into a beginning conversation with your fellow cohort. What big-picture questions or comments on library access, subscription, equity, and value did the Bilansky reading raise for you?
