Using lessons learned from acquiring, processing, and cataloging an extensive DVD and video collection, the author describes how the Rhode Island School of Design Library merged a large curated collection into its own holdings. The collection is analyzed in relation to the growing prevalence of streaming media versus physical access. The article also examines one approach—Tumblr—for keeping track of a collection that goes largely unseen.

The authors investigate Berlin’s art auction market as it developed between 1930 and 1945. By analyzing Berlin’s auction data from the Getty Research Institute’s recently published database of German auction sales catalogs dating from 1930 to 1945, this paper explores the Third Reich’s influence on the Berlin fine art auction market. The analysis is separated into two main categories: the overall market and the auction houses, in particular a close examination of the auction houses Graupe and Lange. Key findings include the inverse relationship between median selling price and the number of paintings sold over several years, indicating that paintings sold in Berlin during this time functioned more like normal goods rather than luxury items; the interconnected relationship between the ownership and operations of many auction houses, including Graupe’s transition to Lange after fleeing from anti-Semitism in Berlin; and the evidence that stolen artwork was auctioned for sale on several occasions, with most of the proceeds benefitting Hitler’s Nazi regime.

作者调查了1930年至1945年间柏林艺术品拍卖市场的发展。本文通过分析盖蒂研究所(Getty Research Institute)最近公布的1930年至1945年德国拍卖目录数据库中的柏林拍卖数据，探讨了第三帝国对柏林艺术品拍卖市场的影响。分析主要分为两大类:整体市场和拍卖行，特别是对Graupe和Lange拍卖行的仔细研究。主要发现包括，几年来，售价中位数与画作销量呈反比关系，表明这段时间在柏林出售的画作更像是普通商品，而不是奢侈品;许多拍卖行的所有权和运营之间相互关联的关系，包括格鲁普(Graupe)在逃离柏林的反犹太主义后转投朗格(Lange);还有证据表明，被盗艺术品被拍卖了好几次，大部分收益都让希特勒的纳粹政权受益。[本文为2018年苏富比艺术研究院研究奖论文改版]该奖项旨在表彰与收藏或艺术市场相关主题的学生论文或数字艺术史项目的卓越表现。本文作为2018年2月在美国纽约举行的ARLIS/NA会议上的“专业新声音”小组的一部分发表。

The author explores how the redesign of the Canadian Centre for Architecture website and its custom search tool fit within the vision of the institution by blurring the line between what the CCA produces and collects. The article describes the challenges of working with data from different sources and different standards, including library, archives, and non-collection resources, as well as the issues still to be resolved and future plans. Working with staff outside the library and archives can push boundaries that allow information professionals to reconsider their understanding of collection discovery and access.

This article presents the authors’ efforts to collaborate with faculty in a curriculum-mapping program that enables shared understanding of curricular objectives and goals. By collaborating and coordinating with faculty for embedded library sessions or modules, this program can be used to strengthen information and research competencies at the appropriate academic levels throughout the degree program. Curriculum mapping helps communicate opportunities to bring together teaching and learning from the lecture hall and studio to the library where students can be introduced to pertinent resources and information that will support their course work and build their understanding of research.

Nathan C. Ricker (1843–1924) was the first person in the United States to receive a degree in architecture in 1873. After earning his degree at the University of Illinois, Ricker went on to become a prominent figure in architecture education—and more specifically at the University of Illinois School of Architecture. He was instrumental in building the early library collection that allowed students in the Midwest to study famous examples of architecture. Upon Ricker’s retirement in 1917, the university honored him by naming the library after him. To mark the 100-year naming anniversary, the author examines the history of the library and its place within the history of architecture education.
Nathan C. Ricker(1843-1924)是美国第一个在1873年获得建筑学学位的人。在伊利诺伊大学获得学位后，Ricker继续成为建筑教育界的杰出人物，更具体地说，是在伊利诺伊大学建筑学院。他在建立早期图书馆收藏方面发挥了重要作用，使中西部的学生能够学习著名的建筑范例。1917年里克退休后，学校以他的名字命名图书馆，以示对他的尊敬。为了纪念100周年的命名，作者考察了图书馆的历史及其在建筑教育史上的地位。

The University of Louisville’s Margaret M. Bridwell Art Library is one of the first institutions to employ the Art Libraries Society of North America’s Artists’ Books Thesaurus (ARLIS/NA ABT) vocabulary to describe images of artists’ books within a CONTENTdm collection. Over the course of three months, the art librarian and a graduate intern worked with multiple stakeholders to build a digital collection designed to reveal unique structures for patron browsing and searching. This article describes the implementation of the project, detailing the process of creating an online artists’ books index from inception to the initial upload of final records. Suggestions are offered for future engagement with the ARLIS/NA Artists’ Books Thesaurus for digital access to artists’ books.

Discovering that a traditional classification scheme was not working for a departmental branch library, Seattle Art Museum research library staff embarked on a multi-year project to create a special-subject classification system with a special class scheme. Three key areas—user-specific taxonomy, cataloging and classification expertise of the library staff, and the department’s particular information-seeking behaviors—were key in the development of a successful scheme. This article describes the process by which the new classification scheme was developed, discusses its challenges and successes, and emphasizes how the library staff and departmental branch users are committed to the scheme’s continuous review and expansion.

Webcomics are an increasingly popular format for comic artists and creators that should be collected by libraries and archives to both complement and expand existing comics and artist collections. The unique nature of webcomics production requires that libraries and archives consider the ways in which these materials intersect with current collections. This article presents both the opportunities and challenges of collecting webcomics materials, situating the argument within the larger context of web archiving and evolving collection practices.

Teaching students the research process is challenging in a one-shot library instruction session, but what can be done if even that opportunity does not exist? By creating a variety of digital modules and activities intended to instruct students on research methods and how to locate credible library sources in art history, the librarian for the College of The Arts (CoTA) at the University of South Florida developed a methodology to instruct over 200 students enrolled each semester in the History of Visual Arts I and History of Visual Arts II classes. This case study provides details about the learning modules and activities that were created, the assessment process and results, and the ongoing library instructional plan. Working in close collaboration with the art history professor and the instructional technologist/blended librarian over several academic years, the librarian for CoTA transitioned from a face-to-face instructional format to an online format that included the development of a course guide, quizzes, and instructional modules embedded in the course management system.

In the spring of 2015, the author was asked to organize and direct a comprehensive inventory of the large and distinguished collection of prints at the Boston Public Library. Working with the staff of the BPL and a corps of graduate students, the team located, described, and prepared for digitization a diverse collection of prints, posters, chromolithographs, drawings, and ephemera, once regarded as among the best collections in the United States. The collection was understaffed, neglected, and adrift in a great public library that struggled to balance its commitment to public service with its status as a major national research library. This article describes the project and the next steps for the collection.
