Welcome to the library guide for AMST 170N:  Introduction to American Folklore.  This guide has been developed to help students succeed in Dr. Anthony Buccitelli's course, which "introduces the verbal and nonverbal genres of folklore that have influenced literature, economics, politics and culture in North America."  It is offered as a starting point and should be used in conjunction with other library research guides, which are listed in the box below.

Click on the buttons on the left-hand side of the page to see the library's resources that will help you to complete assignments in this course.
