3 Library basics Edward Murphy Library term time opening hours: Monday - Friday: 9:30-20:30 The library is on the second floor of the Granary Building! The Library operates a lending service, but some items are designated for Library-use only and can t be taken out. These are usually marked with red tape! We place restrictions on lending for a number of reasons, such as because the book is particularly rare or, fragile, difficult to replace, or maybe because it s in particularly high demand. You check out and return books at the Issue Desk. As undergraduates, you re entitled to have 10 items out on loan at any one time, but each will usually need to be returned within two weeks. If you really need to hold on to them past two weeks, and no one else is looking for them, you can renew an item up to four times. Late fines are charged at 25c per day. If your total fines are greater than 10, you won t be able to take out any more books items until it s paid down below that figure. You ll get an automated message the day before an item is due, but this is just a courtesy - it s up to you to keep on top of your loans! Log on to your Library account to see what your current loans are, as well as to create handy lists of books for later reference, here: capitadiscovery.co.uk/ncad/ If you lose or damage an item, please tell us - we promise we won t bite, we just need to find a replacement as soon as possible! More details of library user guidelines can be found here:
4 Physical collection There are a whopping 96,000 items in the Library s collection, many of which you d be hard-pressed to find elsewhere. These include limited-run artists books, past students theses, rare DVDs and recordings, language learning materials, and a lot more besides! Use the catalogue to find what you re looking for or simply browse the shelves in the section you think you re interested in! Our catalogue can be found on the Library s website or by following this link: capitadiscovery.co.uk/ncad/ A lot of the books that appear on the catalogue are in storage and need to be requested - a simple form is all you need to complete for that, which you can get from the Issue Desk. We also subscribe to around 300 magazines and journals. These are a great way of getting very up-to-date and specialised information, in a way that books sometimes don t offer. We have really extensive back issues for many of our current titles, which you can also browse or request from storage. They re located on the shelf facing out into the atrium in the main Library area. You might notice that the Library is organised in a particular way, with numbers and letters appearing as a sort of code on their spines. Read on to find out more...
5 The Dewey Decimal System The Dewey Decimal System is a way of organising books by subject, using numbers from 000 to 999, sometimes followed by decimal points and further numbers. The digits to the left of the decimal point give the broad subject and the digits to the right give more detailed information about it (e.g. 709 is Art, but is Irish Art specifically, and is 21st Century Irish Art EVEN MORE specifically). The letters usually indicate the first three letters of the artist or author s surname, or where there is only one letter, the title of the book. Here are the 10 main subject headings: 000 Computer science, information, and general works 100 Philosophy and psychology 200 Religion 300 Social sciences 400 Language 500 Science 600 Technology 700 Arts and recreation 800 Literature 900 History and geography Each stack of shelves in the library is marked with what subjects it contains - check them out for help finding what you re looking for, or just ask a member of staff!
6 E-resources In addition to all the amazing physical stuff the library provides, we also purchase subscriptions to a number of e-journal titles and resource databases. These can be accessed on-campus through the library website or by logging in while off-campus using your MyAthens credentials. Here are some examples! Find more on the library website... Art Source An art research database covering a broad range of subjects - from fine art to commercial art. It s got full-text articles, indexes, and abstracts for a variety of journals, books, and more! Artstor A fully-searchable collection of almost two million images available for research and teaching purposes. Allows users to search, organize, present, upload, and share images - as well as browse curated collections and complementary blogs. Design and Applied Arts Index Updated monthly, this index is a wonderful source of abstracts and bibliographic records for articles, news items, and reviews published in design and applied arts periodicals from 1973 onwards - a really useful tool for connecting the dots of a research landscape and tracking down the right sources for your work.

8 Learning Centre & Visual Resources Centre The Learning Centre and the Visual Resources Centre are both part of the Edward Murphy Library. They re quiet spaces which can be used for viewing DVDs, listening to language learning materials, or just studying. They also provide research support to students in the form of personalised instruction sessions. Topics they cover in these sessions include: Introduction to the basics of using the library Introduction to the library s e-resources Introduction to the Artstor image database Introduction to Zotero citation software Bibliographic support and citation help These can be really useful for students ready to take the next step in their art research or assignment-writing, and can be booked by phone, , or in-person. They also accomodate drop-in sessions, if the fancy takes you while you re passign by! They can do one-on-one sessions or groups of up to three! Ask for Tom or Mary at the issue desk Ring us at Or at mahert@staff.ncad.ie batemanm@staff.ncad.ie
9 National Irish Visual Arts Library (NIVAL) NIVAL collects, stores, and makes accessible for research an unparalleled collection of documentation about Irish art and design. Monographs, exhibition catalogues, price lists, brochures, press releases and newspaper reviews - you name it! They subscribe to a number of relevant journals too, and significant back-runs of these are also available. It s open to both the public and to students, and its opening hours are: Monday: 10:00-20:00 (by appointment) Tuesday-Thursday: 10:00-17:00 Friday: CLOSED A lot of the material is not available anywhere else and is an absolutely invaluable source of information and inspiration for students! NIVAL has its own website where you can browse special collections and search the artists database: Give it a whirl - you ll need to use it for one of the LPP questions!
10 The Research Process Research is what we call the systematic study of sources and materials to establish facts, develop ideas, and arrive at conclusions. It ll be an important part of your learning in NCAD, so let s have a look at what shape it normally takes! 1. DEFINE What are your information needs and what keywords would you use to describe them? What sources best satisfy those needs? Be aware of relying too heavily on just online or just physical material - only a small amount of the world s information is available online, but physical information is slower to update. Find a balance. Make sure to draw from a wide variety of source types, too - this creates a healthy resource mix and avoids major gaps in your sources (and therefore, the information available to you!). 2. FIND How do you find your sources quickly and effectively? The Library holds many kinds of high-quality sources and can help you find them quickly - just ask us! Remember that Google is just one way of searching the internet and is heavily biased in what results it shows you - your location and browsing history effect these results greatly, for example. Use it, but don t rely solely on it. Check out other libraries, official government publications, community archives. Search databases and catalogues, talk to staff, exercise those detective skills!
11 3. EVALUATE Not all sources are created equally. Ask yourself: how accurate, current, relevant, or authoritative are your sources? There s a difference between popularity and accuracy, so make sure to check to see if your sources have been reviewed or edited by an authority on the subject. Peer-review is a reliable indicator of accuracy and objectivity - it s a process whereby experts in a relevant field will review a book or journal prior to publication. Look at publication dates - is the kind of information you re looking for likely to change quickly or only be relevant for a short time? How relevant or appropriate is the source to what you re working on? Consider who has created the source and why. Have they published other works in the field before? Is the source recommended by a tutor or librarian? These are all indicators of authority. Online sources such as Wikipedia are good for getting acquainted with a topic, but are not considered authoritative and should not be relied on too heavily. 4. CITE How do you acknowledge your sources properly, both in-text and in bibliographies? There ll be more on this in the next section, but remember that the work of others deserves as much acknowledgement as your own - doing so in the proper manner is both professional and ethical. And who doesn t want to be professional and ethical?
12 5. USE How are you legally allowed to use the information you ve acquired? Intellectual property rights protect the expression, form, and documentation of ideas - copyright is one kind of intellectual property right. Others include design rights, patents, and trademarks. Copyright is applied automatically to an original artistic work in most cases, regardless of its creator or quality. There are many kinds of copyright and the specific rules vary, but in general you should always check to make sure you re not infringing on those rights. A concept known as Fair Use/Fair Dealing allows for the copying of a work for educational, review, or non-commercial personal use without having to seek permission. This is usually limited to only a small portion of the work and requires that you acknowledge the original creator. Now that you ve found a good number of varied and high-quality sources of information, and you know how to use them, it s time to start writing! Many thanks to Learning Resources, at the Glasgow School of Art, for their help with this part. Check out their InfosmART module online resource if you re looking for more on the topic! infosmart/
13 Citations, bibliographies Using the work of others to inform your own is a great way of constructing a powerful argument and enhancing the credibility of your work. It shows that you have read widely on the subject and lets tutors find out more about those sources if they wish. Acknowledging these sources is vital to any written work at third-level, and is part of the very bedrock of how ideas spread and develop. Referencing and citing are how you do this! The details you provide for a source are normally its author, title, date and place of publication, and details and the name of its publisher You may have to provide additional details, depending on what form the source takes, such as a volume number (when the source is in a series of books or magazines) or a direct link to the source (when the source is online). These individual references are then collected into what s called a bibliography. Citing is a way of briefly referencing a source within the text of your assignment, linking it to the more detailed reference in the bibliography. This is usually done when you paraphrase someone else s ideas or directly quote them. Information, facts, and dates that are considered common knowledge are not required to be referenced e.g. Dublin is the capital city of Ireland.
14 Harvard style There are many formatting styles used for citing references - NCAD uses is the Harvard style. There are a million and one guides on the internet and elsewhere that will outline the nitty gritty of how to reference in Harvard style, but briefly put it looks something like this: Citing within the text: Peer review is a reliable indicator of accuracy - it s a process whereby experts in a relevant field will evaluate a book or journal prior to publication. (Last Name, Year of Publication). For example: Peer review is a reliable indicator of accuracy - it s a process whereby experts in a relevant field will evaluate a book or journal prior to publication. (Maher, 2017). In your bibliography: Last name, First Initial. (Year of publication). Title. Place of Publication: Publisher, Page(s). For example: Maher, T. (2017). Learning & Professional Practice, Dublin: National College of Art & Design, pp Check out the next page for an example of what a bibliography might look like. Note the slight changes you have to make in cases of e.g. multiple authors, editors, online source.
