The Library has organised two trials of the Avery Index to Architectural Periodicals database via each of the two platforms on which it is available – CSA and OCLC. How to access each trial is detailed below. We welcome feedback – good or bad – on these trials, please contact Steve Corn,
S.C.Corn@lboro.ac.uk with your comments.

The Avery Index to Architectural Periodicals database offers a comprehensive listing of journal articles on architecture and design, including bibliographic descriptions on subjects such as the history and practice of architecture, landscape architecture, city planning, historic preservation, and interior design and decoration. It contains more than 440,000 thousand entries surveying over seven hundred American and international journals. These include not only scholarly and popular periodical literature, but also publications of professional associations, American state and regional periodicals, and the major serials on architecture and design of Europe, Asia, Latin America, and Australia. Articles are included from key publications such as American Architect, Baumeister, Byggekunst, Domus, and El Croquis, as well as architectural articles from art and planning journals such as American Art Journal, Burlington Magazine, Environment and Planning A, Metropolitan Museum Journal, and Revue de l’Art. Coverage is 1934 – current, (with selective coverage back to 1741).
