This pathfinder is meant to be used as a tool for any journalist who is interested in covering subjects in the field of architecture. It is divided into sub-categories, such as general information, women in architecture, environmental architecture etc. The sites that were selected were done so because of their informational content, as well as the links they offer. Journalists will find everything from new and upcoming projects and architects to buildings of historical significance.
