Hi Janine, Great to hear from you! Your comment about digitizing and making available via ArtStor raises some perplexing rights issues. We could consider digitizing the set and making it available behind local authentication via our local image database, but digitize and make available broadly via a subscription accessed product such as ArtStor? Hmmm...

I concur with Margaret, these are important evidence of the way art history was taught (both my husband & I still have the sets that we bought as ‘required course texts’ when we were students). I’ve added gift sets to various libraries where I’ve worked in the past and a few digitized sets (including at least one from UCLA) have now made their way into Hathi Trust. I think what’s special about what you’re being offered is that it is a complete set! It would be great to have the complete set digitized and available in Hathi Trust or some other digital repository, and if you could work with ARTstor to get the entire set added to ARTstor it would be even better!

Hi Peter, I still have a bunch of those University Prints kicking around here. Other libraries at the University of Toronto have the catalogs for different sets: Student series K: Mediaeval art; University prints. Series C. Later Italian art; 500 plates to accompany Outlines for the study of art, volume II; University prints. Series B. Early Italian art; 500 plates to accompany Outlines for the study of art, volume I; The University prints. Student series D. Art of the Netherlands and Germany; five hundred reproductions illustrating the Flemish, Dutch, and German schools of painting, from the early fifteenth to the eighteenth century; German sculpture from the eleventh to the seventeenth century. If you have the room, I would accept the donation. Like the Carnegie Art Sets (a topic which I am researching), I think these early teaching aids have the potential for interesting research projects down the line. My 2 cents. Cheers, Margaret On 4/3/2013 3:46 PM, Peter P Blank wrote: Greetings all, Back in the day of mounted image study sets, slides, etc., there was an extensive reproduction series published by University Prints of Cambridge, Mass. I don't believe they were ever associated with Harvard in any way, just happened to be in Cambridge. As I recall, each print was about 4"X6". Small, easy to store on a shelf, in portfolios/sets on a particular topic. The series had an alpha arrangement ("The University prints. Series L. Woodcuts & engravings") and covered architecture, painting, prints, sculpture, and probably dec. arts. Possibly thousands published (I've heard ~6,600 individual prints mentioned). Does anyone know any more history about this series? Was this series ever offered as microform or as a digital set? University Prints seem to be long gone, but I suspect the collective memory has the skinny on this. We've been offered a "full" set, and I am wondering why I should bother taking it. Any and all thoughts welcome. Regards, Peter Blank -- Peter P.
