| Abstract: | As the social, economic, educational, political, and international significance of the creative arts is increasingly recognized by American society, the need for insightful research on the arts, their organization, production, and impact becomes more evident. But the diversity of arts disciplines and organizations can make it difficult for the researcher to identify and locate useful and reliable information on the arts. This article provides a broad summary of resources available to scholars and practitioners to inform their research on artists, arts organizations, audiences, and arts support systems. |
