Dear Colleagues (and especially those suffering with DYABOLA),
We have been experimenting with DYABOLA Web here at the University of
Virginia, and have been quite successful. I have written a Help/Guide to
navigating the web version which you can find at our web site
(www.lib.virginia.edu/fine-arts) on the Databases-Art page. Please take a
look and comments are welcome.
As to the access "key" question, I began by requesting the demo key from
the PROJEKT DYABOLA web page and by specifying that I was the Bibliographer
in the Fine Arts Library. The next day the "key" arrived via e-mail.
After a follow-up inquiry regarding purchase of the product and access for
multiple users, I was informed that our purchase of the cd-rom entitled us
to access to the Web version for this year. Since then, we have been using
the key provided, albeit with one user at a time, without fail. We have
also recently had sessions with faculty and grad students on the new Web
version. We all definitely prefer this to the cd-rom. And it prints!
We have access to the images in the Census through the Web version, but I
have found that they are only part of the Monument Databanken (that is
when the "Lightbox" appears). I plan to make a web-based Guide to the
Census my next project, as it appears to be quite rich.
yours,
Lucie
