Welcome to the subject page for Anthropology. This guide focuses on anthropology and anthropology-related information resources that are available to the IUPUI community. These resources support the curriculum and anthropology-related research. Anthropology is a multifaceted discipline. There is no single "anthropology section" of the library; information sources may be found throughout the collection and in various formats. Study and research in anthropology is sometimes interdisciplinary, so relevant information also may be found in sources that are not strictly anthropological. Some materials are available online. Some must be obtained through interlibrary loan. Anthropology-related reference resources provide useful information for academic work and research, and can identify and help locate additional sources. For assistance, please contact the subject librarian for anthropology.

Anthropology Plus is the world's most comprehensive, focused index of bibliographic materials from the late 1800s to today in the fields of social, cultural, physical, biological, and linguistic anthropology; ethnology, archaeology, folklore, and material culture; and interdisciplinary studies. Beyond these disciplines, researchers and scholars in art history, demography, economics, genetics, geography, geology, history, psychology, religion, or sociology will all find relevant anthropological material. Anthropology Plus unites two premier indexes created in two hemispheres. The result is extensive, worldwide coverage of core journals plus local and lesser-known journals. Together, Harvard University's highly respected Anthropological Literature database and the United Kingdom's Anthropological Index (Royal Anthropological Institute) provide a uniquely broad and rich resource for education and research in anthropology and related fields
