----------------------------Original message----------------------------
Mary - Over the past few years I have had several discussions  with Wilson
reps about the prospect of getting them to "recon" Art Index back to 1929.
They have indicated that there is not enough interest to take on this
expensive project. Perhaps if many ARLIS folks write letters they will
have a sense that this should be a priority.
