Issue 002 of For Reference Only is dedicated entirely to the shoes found in FRANK, a now-defunct Women’s fashion magazine that published on a monthly basis between 1997-1999. The complete run is available to browse in our Reference Library. For Reference Only is an irregular dispatch of visual research: a series of papers compiling visual references loosely gathered according to a theme, and sourced from books in the Reference Point Library collection. This publication is intended to function simultaneously as a reconfigured library catalogue and image repertoire for researchers, inviting you to approach your research through chance correspondence and accidental encounters. We hope this lends itself to new ways of reading the contents of a library; but also, as an opportunity to gather that which is useful to you, stands out, pleases you, or to which you might feel some sort of affinity; enough so that it be rescued from the mass of ‘things,’ displayed and held in higher regard, for a moment - until perhaps, it is no longer of use. Each copy comes wrapped in white waxed tissue paper with a grid pattern washi paper tape.
