Susan,
Not that simple a question to answer. It depends to a very large extent
on who you are trying to serve. Do you have an affiliated art school?
What are the strengths of the museum collection? Do your curators
research and publish extensively, and if so in what areas? Are you trying
to assist a general art museum public audience? What are the strengths of
your periodical holdings? In other words, what good are cites if you
don't have the stuff, which moves something like Art Full Text up the
list. Are you considering the auction results resources part of this
query? Etc. and so on.
Regards,
Peter Blank

Hello,
I am the librarian at the Denver Art Museum
Library.
We currently have no online databases. If you
had to choose 2 online art research databases, what would they
be?
Thank you very much
for your input.
