RESEARCH RESOURCES FOR FIELDWORK & TRAVEL

The resources on this guide are:

  • Intended to help you prepare for your research presentation & your cultural geography assignment, and to enrich your fieldwork experience
  • All accessible from off-campus, or are freely available online
  • Yours to help select. Let me know if you find resources you'd like to include here and I'll add them.

To access library resources (e-books and material in databases) from Iceland, use the 16-digit number on your OneCard (the one that starts with 6010...). If you don't have your OneCard, log on to MyWellesley, go to the Library tab, and find your 6010... number in the upper right corner of the page.

If you find great resources, feel free to share! Please link to them in the comments for this -- or any other relevant -- box on the guide.

For help with research, email me, or contact me on chat. My contact info is in the box on the right.

Góða ferð!
