Greetings from the Getty Vocabulary Program. Our big news this quarter is that Dr. Nancy Um has joined us as Associate Director for Research and Knowledge
Creation (RKC) at the Getty Research Institute (GRI). We look forward to beginning a productive new chapter with Dr. Um.
In the last quarter, processing of contributions has included Österreichische Galerie Belvedere artists, Missouri Remembers artists, and RKD artist records
in ULAN; in AAT, terms for Indian architecture, AAT terms for AAT translations in Portuguese, updates to Dutch terms, terms for the Florentine Codex initiative in AAT, records from the Built Works Registry in CONA, and records from NGA in TGN, among others.
For additional information abut recent contributions, see the newsletter:

We continue our mission and strategic plan to make the Vocabularies more multilingual, multicultural, diverse, and inclusive. We have presented in several
venues on the topic of unbiased terminology, using Vocabularies in the field, and cataloging.

For developers:
Coming soon, the Vocab LOD site (vocab.getty.edu) will be changing how it does content negotiation for specific serializations in order to offer 2 modeling
options for consumers of Getty Vocabularies URIs: the original Vocab LOD SKOS/Schema.org model and the new Linked.Art modeled Vocabularies data for JSON and JSON-LD. See this page for details:
