I’m really pleased to announce that we finally have a subscription to ARTstor, a large collection of images for research and teaching purposes.

According to the ARTstor web site, the collection includes images in the areas of art, architecture, the humanities, and social sciences. There’s also a set of tools to view, present, and manage images. We’ll have training sessions on campus in early May.

Access ARTstor from the Libraries’ web site, under Article Finder > Art.
