November 29, 2012

What have we been talking about on the ACADI list recently?

ARTstor ACADI members offered positive reviews and comments on image database  in regard to image size and quality. The image citation tool was also commended.

An ACADI member started a lively discussion on the list by proposing her idea ” to preserve a specimen (Art & Design) Slide Library in its physical form – pre the sort of weeding going on in UK collections, as slide libraries are seen as redundant and space hungry”

The National Portrait Gallery now provides free downloads of a large range of images from its Collection for academic and non-commercial projects. The news was very welcome.

The VRA annual travel award was publicised and an attendee gave the last conference a big thumbs up.

Thesaurus- building software recommendations.

The Hooper Report on the need for the creative industries need to play a key role in leading and funding the Copyright Hub.
