Image Research

This guide is a starting place for image-based research at UCLA.

Connect from Off-Campus

Most of the links on this page go to subscription sources that are accessible from any computer on campus. UCLA students, faculty, and staff can also access these sites from off-campus using either the Proxy Server (a simple setting in your browser) or the VPN Client (a program you install on your computer).

Major Online Databases

Here are links to major image databases to use in your research. They are licensed resources available to UCLA users only. UCLA staff, faculty, and students will need to make sure their computers are configured for off-campus access when researching from home.

Subject-Specific Databases

Index Databases

These databases index illustrations and art reproductions found in periodicals.
