Hello all, I would like your help in determining whether to keep some books in our collection. I am in the process of weeding my public library art collection and came across some books that do not circulate (so the library wants them weeded). Are these titles important to a public library art collection? I did check the titles in Guide to the Literature of Art History by Etta Arntzen nd Robert Rainwater, c. 1980. Several are from exhibitions: Bell, Clive. Landmarks in Nineteenth Century Painting. Books for Libraries Press, Inc: New York, 1967. Cortissoz, Royal. American Artists. Books for Libraries Press, Inc.: New York, 1970. Flying Tigers: Painting and Sculpture in New York 1939-1946. Bell Gallery, Brown University: Rhode Island, 1985. James Thrall Soby Collection of works of art pledged or given to The Museum of Modern Art. Museum of Modern Art: New York, 1961. Steichen, Edward, ed. The Family of Man. Museum of Modern Art: New York, 1955. Also, do any public libraries (or other art libraries) maintain a collection of New York Graphic Society Fine Art Reproductions catalogs?
