Here are a few short videos that deal with the issues of using different kinds of sources in college-level academic writing. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to find the links.
To access the DCAD library go to the Populi homepage. On the very top banner you will see a tab that's simply called "Library". To get to the databases, JStor and ArtStor, click on links. The username is "dcadstudent" and the password is "research".
