Arcade included in artlibraries.net
Arcade, the catalogue of the Frick Art Reference Library and the libraries of the Brooklyn Museum and the Museum of Modern Art, is now searchable through artlibraries.net – Virtual Catalogue for Art History. Artlibraries.net, formerly known as the Virtueller Katalog
Kunstgeschichte (VKK), provides access to over 8 million bibliographic records for periodicals, conference papers, festschriften, auction catalogues, exhibition catalogues and much more. Along with the catalogues of The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Thomas J. Watson Library and the Getty Research Institute Research Library, Arcade is one of only three U.S. library catalogues included in this international search portal for the discovery of art resources.
We are thrilled to be part of this important resource. Please see the announcement from artlibraries.net below.
