Zotero is an open-source tool used to collect resources, organize research, and generate bibliographies. Users can sync their lists between devices and share lists to collaborate with colleagues.
The purpose of this bibliography is to collaboratively share resources and projects related to documenting Philadelphia-area Black art, artists, histories, and representations at local institutions and beyond. The research I have been conducting on Black artists in the Philadelphia Museum of Art collection through the Library and Archives “Four Elements” Blog, those included in the Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection at Temple University Libraries, and those who have worked with Mural Arts Philadelphia are included in this list.
Click here to view the web library or download the Zotero desktop application. Search the list using the search box in the upper right corner or click on tags in the bottom left corner to view collections of resources, such as photographer, Philadelphia, and woman-identifying.
Create or log into your existing Zotero account and join the Philly Black Art Resources group to upload your resources and tag them with existing and new tags to aid in the discovery of these resources by future users. Share with your network to build the community.
