Hi All: Please excuse any cross-postings. Virginia Tech's Art and
Architecture Library maintains a collection of architectural
drawings/plans/blueprints that is NOT an archival collection, but is
primarily intended for in-class (studio) instructional use - not as a
historical record.
If your library or VR collection maintains a similar collection of
drawings, please take a few minutes to respond to our quick survey (5
short answers). Survey results will be used in an article about these
kinds of collections:
Survey:
1. How many drawing sets does your library/VR collection own?
2. Do you circulate this collection - do the drawings leave the
library?
3. Do you have a budget for this collection? If so, where do you
purchase drawings from?
4. If you do not have a budget for the collection, how do you
acquire the drawings?
5. Please feel free to share with us any comments or questions you
may have regarding these types of materials. If you would rather not
have your institution's name or your name mentioned in the article,
please let us know.
Many Thanks!
