Accessibility Tips and Assistance:
There are several types of information available to Drama/Theater Arts students through the ACC libraries, both in print form and electronically. Please note that at this time due to COVID-19, we are unable to lend physical materials but all of the resources listed below are avilable through ACC Library Services or the internet in digital format:
|
Books |
You can find a good selection of plays in our book collection. A book can also provide detailed background and historical information on dramatists and landmark stage productions, as well as literary criticism. |
|
Reference Books |
This covers encyclopedias, atlases, and other resources that are referred to for specific information. Go to these for definitions, shorter explanations, historical and biographical sketches. |
|
Articles |
Articles from journals, magazines, and major newspapers are the primary source for recent reviews and literary criticism on recently published plays and current stage productions. ACC databases can help connect you to these articles. |
|
Web Sites |
The internet can provide a wealth of information, especially from government sources and professional organizations. |
Apps (little software applications) allow you to customize your tablet to do the things you like to do. Some of the apps listed are free, while others are fee-based. Additionally, some apps are initially free, and then require in-app purchases if more features and functionality are desired. Listed, you will find some app recommendations we have come up with through trial, error, and our own experiences.
ACC Library Services does not endorse any fee-based apps nor it is liable for reimbursement of any apps paid for by patrons. Please refer to the Tablet Circulation Policy for further details.
