Colleagues,
I'd like to let you know about changes to The AMICO Library(TM) from RLG:
--RLG has a renewed, multiyear agreement with the Art Museum Image
Consortium (AMICO) to provide access to The AMICO Library. Educational and
research institutions worldwide can now subscribe to The AMICO Library.
--The new edition of the AMICO Library includes images and multimedia
documenting over 77,000 different works of art and features Antenna Audio
sound files from museum audio tours.
--There will be no change to the current academic institution price of The
AMICO Library from RLG. (See http://www.rlg.org/amico/amicorates.html)
--This year, RLG will begin providing The AMICO Library through Luna's
InsightŪ software, a software tool developed specifically to meet the needs
of those who work with image collections. Luna's software provides superior
image manipulation, with special features like zooming, side-by-side image
presentation, and easy saving and sequencing of images for lectures,
projects, and exhibits.
--Luna customers with local Insight server software can add The AMICO
Library to their list of accessible collections.
--The new edition of The AMICO Library will be available via Insight by
September. (RLG will continue providing access to the current edition of
the Library via Eureka until that time.)
