HON 410: Expressive Culture of Death: In Person Library Resources

It is a truism that death is a part of life. This class will examine the different ways that death captures the attention of the living and the different forms of expressive culture it inspires.

How to Use the Library Space

Though we live in a digital world, there's a lot the University Libraries can offer you!

  • Looking to chart the path forward to mortuary school? Check out a book in the stacks that'll show you, diagram by diagram, exactly what you're in for.
  • Are you planning to create a cutting edge device that helps patients be a little more comfortable in their last days of hospice care? Check out the Patent and Trademark office!
  • Are you a True Crime podcast junkie who's always wanted to take a spin behind the mic? Check out the Multimedia Studio.
  • With an eye to America's aging population, are you going to become the leading architect for end of life facilities? It's a growing industry that you might not have considered before this course!

The project you create for this class can be more than just an assignment you're completing. Let the library and librarians help you expand your thoughts around the future of life, death, career, and the meaning of it all, by utilizing whatever resources will help you.
