Library trials of useful databases

From Elana Levine

University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

Thought you might be interested to know that the UWM Libraries have subscribed to trial versions of a few useful databases for people doing media-related work, namely the Film and Performance Arts databases through Proquest and the Film and Television Literature Index with Full Text. You can access both http://guides.library.uwm.edu/trials. There is a space to enter feedback, which I imagine might encourage the library to subscribe permanently. So please check them out, and write some comments. Would be great to have these resources available to us. I know that I will be encouraging my students to use them, as well, while they still have access.

Artist Clarissa Sligh Oct 19

This just in from Jasmine Alinder, Associate Professor and Co-Coordinator of Public History at UW-Milwaukee.
Sounds like not to be missed.

Photographer and book artist Clarissa Sligh will offer a presentation in the Ettinger Book Artist Series on Tuesday, October 19, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. in Special Collections on the fourth floor of the Golda Meir Library.

Combining photographs, drawings, and texts, Sligh’s installations, alternative photographs, and artist’s books are personal and political reflections of her life experiences as a female African American, beginning at fifteen when she was the lead plaintif in 1955 in Virginia.

Clarissa Sligh’s presence in Milwaukee is a collaboration with Woodland Pattern Book Center, where she will offer a workshop on Sunday, October 17. She will also offer a workshop for selected students at UWM.

For more information on Clarissa Sligh and her work, please visit her website at: http://clarissasligh.com/index.html
