SCAD Resources
Through the Jen Library, SCAD students, faculty and staff have access to a wealth of information. There you will find many great resources on-line. Here are a few of my favorites. This list will be added to and amended so check back often. The first paragraph below the header is the description of the resource taken verbatim from the landing page for said resource.

E-Books Available through the JenLibrary
NetLibrary provides access to your library’s eContent collection. eContent is the digital version of books, journals, and database content. You can access your library’s eContent 24 hours a days, seven days a week.
