Introduction to a New Getty Vocabulary
Jonathan Ward, Editor
The Getty Vocabularies are authoritative resources for indexing art,
architecture, and material culture. The presentation will discuss the
current editorial work and contributions of the Art & Architecture
Thesaurus (AAT), Union List of Artist Names (ULAN), and Getty Thesaurus
of Geographic Names (TGN), as well as the development of a new Getty
vocabulary, the Cultural Objects Name Authority (CONA).

Sustaining Digital Legacies: What Does It Take?
Victoria McCargar
Even as digital technologies have provided us with astonishing avenues
for access, they are also setting up a preservation challenge that may
eventually dwarf projects and programs in the analog world. Fortunately,
developments like OAIS (open archive information systems) PREMIS
(preservation metadata) and TRAC (trusted repository audit and
certification) can provide even small libraries and archives with
valuable strategies for tackling the sustainability of their digital
collections.

Exhibition Tour with Curator Meg Linton
3 Solo Projects: Lynn Aldrich, Jessica Rath, Carrie Ungerman
Second in a series of exhibitions highlighting the work of Southern
California artists. Aldrich, Rath, and Ungerman have each created new
site-specific installations using common materials in quantity: dozens
of metal and plastic rain gutters, gallons of liquid latex, and
thousands of plastic water bottles to make tactile and poignant
experiences that are poetic metaphors of abundance, scarcity, and
growth.
