NYARC Consortium Press Release for Shared ILS

 

"Three of the founding members of the New York Art Resources Consortium (NYARC)—the Frick Art Reference Library and the libraries of the Brooklyn Museum and The Museum of Modern Art—have selected Millennium as the integrated library system that will offer access to all three collections through a shared catalog. With a combined total of over 725,000 records describing books, periodicals, auction and exhibition catalogs, artist files, photograph collections, and archival materials, this partnership establishes one of the largest specialized web resources for the international art community. The Frick Art Reference Library, an Innovative client since 1987, will host and administer the NYARC shared system.

 

Funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the NYARC integrated library system will broaden access to the renowned research collections of each library and provide a platform for future collaborative efforts in collections development and information delivery services."
