Art Libraries Meet the Challenges of E-Publishing
IFLA Art Libraries Section Satellite Conference
Paris, 12-14 August 2014
Recent years have seen an increase in experimental electronic publishing concerning the visual arts. Art publishers are not simply
reproducing traditional print publications electronically; they are also creating remarkable works with unique digital functionalities. Artists, arts organizations, and publishers worldwide use applications, e-book readers, and Web resources in order to produce
original artworks and new art resources. These new publications¡ªmedia-rich, collaborative, open-ended, or immersive¡ªare extending the scope of art publishing.
In collaboration with the Institut national d¡¯histoire de l¡¯art (INHA), the Art Libraries Section of IFLA is organizing a three-day
conference in Paris focused on visual arts e-publishing. The conference will be held at INHA¡¯s headquarters 12-14 August 2014. The three days will be divided between two morning sessions with conferences and round table discussions, and three afternoons devoted
to site visits and demonstrations in Paris museums and libraries.
