Analysing Advertising 2011-12

Extra Reading (not in course guide):

  • Academic titles (books only – search journals for articles)
  • Titles (a more limited list) written by those in the ad or marketing industries, for students or the industry itself and sometimes for a wider public

Note that all these titles will not be in the library. If they are not, and not in Brighton library either, you can order them via Inter-library loan which you can do electronically – go to your ‘Account’. Ask your tutor or the library how to do this if you’re not sure. It costs £2 per title. You should receive the book(s) within a week or 10 days and can usually have them for 4 weeks, and this period is sometimes renewable. If you order a journal article (that you can’t access from the university’s electronic library), you will be sent a photocopy that you can keep.

The title above is a text book on Advertising, heavily American, and indeed heavy – more telephone directory than small paperback. Though it’s for use on more vocational courses it still has interesting material, and lots of ad examples, in colour, for you to dip into. Borrow from MFM Resources Room
