The Library: A library can be very helpful for finding out various information about artists and designers. It may well be the most tedious way of gathering information but if done correctly is by far the most effective and RELIABLE way. Books tend to give the most truthful and reliable information on a certain topic, however you must be careful not to start reading magazines and newspapers as these can often be more bias than truthful.
The Museum / Art Gallery: A museum or art gallery is a much more practical way of gathering information. In my opinion it's not the most effective way, due to the lack of information via text, but if you're more of a creative and imaginative person, a museum is a great way to gather information on artists and designers.
The Internet: Everybody knows the internet has the answer to everything, however everyone knows that 'everything' is not always reliable or truthful. In my opinion the internet is more of a quicker approach to finding information. The pros are searching for information via the internet is very fast and very easy, however the cons are the information won't always be reliable, this is a risk you'll have to take.
