Fashion Photography in the Kellen Design Archives

If you cannot find materials in a catalog using a keyword search or a subject search, think about some alternative words that would describe what you are seeking.

The archives and library staff members who create catalog records choose broad subject headings that describe the essence of collections, not specific items. Ask a reference librarian for help searching in the catalog, or contact the Kellen Design Archives directly to discuss your research topic.
