ANTH 276: Global Media ( HC )

Before you begin to search Tripod for the book for your book review, do some brainstorming! Think about what you've read for this course or other courses that is a specific focus within the field of deviance studies. What sounds interesting?

If you want to browse the shelves, you can always go to the shelves in Lutnick - GN is Anthropology, many books about Media will be in the JK section.

You can also use the handbooks and Bibliographies to start your search:

When you search Tripod, 

• Set the search for "Books and Media" so that you aren't overwhelmed by article results, use "Resource Type" to limit to only books (which will include print and electronic books)
• Begin by searching for Anthropology and Your Topic as keywords, for example: "Race AND Media"
• Use the Date option on the left-side filters to limit to books published in the last 5 years 
• Use the author information and the abstract to try to determine the author's discipline, since the book should be written by a social scientist (which may include sociology, anthropology, criminology)

Remember, you can request books from Bryn Mawr and Swarthmore! They should arrive within 1 day. You'll need to log in to Tripod to request.

If there is a specific title that you are interested in that is not available from any TriCo school, you can request it through EZBorrow or Interlibrary Loan, which may take longer.
