Dear Friends and Colleagues,
ARTstor would like to thank you for your continued support
and contributions this past year. In 2008, the community contributed
dozens of important and unique collections to the ARTstor Digital Library. We
released 22 new collections, added content to 21 existing collections, and
reached agreements with 33 new museums, photoarchives, libraries, scholars,
professional photographers, and artists and artists’ estates. The ARTstor
Digital Library collection now totals 890,000 images and will soon include
nearly 1,000,000 images with the release of the Magnum Photos collection in
early 2009. More detailed information can be found below and on our website: http://www.artstor.org/news/n-html/an-081218-2007-recap.shtml
Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
Christine Kuan
