Just sent this to VRA-L, so please forgive duplication! Hi Collective Wisdom of ARLIS/NA, Given increasing interest and demand, we're considering subscribing to a stock photo service (Thinkstockphotos.com) and I wondered if any other schools/institutions have done this and what your experiences have been. I'm particularly interested in pace of use -- by that I mean, is use pretty steady or is it more sporadic (assignment-driven, perhaps)? The pricing model the company proposes is for a relatively steady stream of use, but I suspect our use will be very sporadic with highs and lows. Please reply off-list to [log in to unmask] -- I'll consolidate responses for all those interested. thanks much, Rebecca ____________ Rebecca Price Architecture, Urban Planning & Visual Resources Librarian Art, Architecture & Engineering Library University of Michigan, overcast Ann Arbor, MI 48109-2094 734-647-5274 http://www.lib.umich.edu/aael/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/join.html Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
