What are reference materials?

GSCC Libraries FAQ
Reference materials include dictionaries, encyclopedias, almanacs, periodical indexes, atlases, and college catalogs or schedules.

Why does AccuStandard use ampules for most of their Organic Reference Materials?

Frequently Asked Questions
Like most Organic Chemical Reference Material manufacturers, AccuStandard uses ampules. There are many positive reasons for using ampules. One of the most important is that once sealed, they provide a long term, air tight and relatively inert environment that protects the product for long term storage. Ampules preserve the concentration of the analytes since neither the analytes nor the solvent can escape.

Do you use reference materials, or is it all in your head?

Blue Moon Atelier - Frequently Asked Questions
I do use references a lot. They're invaluable when you're trying to depict a certain pose, or achieve a certain perspective. Cheating? In what way? I suppose if I copied a reference photo pixel by pixel it would be. No, I wouldn't consider an artist's general use of reference cheating. Reference can be a stock photo, or a live model; the idea is that the item is a reference, not the end result.
