----------------------------Original message---------------------------- This sounds very useful, but to what extent does it overlap with the information available thorugh the International Directory of Art Libraries site. [http://aaln.org/ifla-idal] I suggest you talk to Thomas Hill at Vassar who is the general editor. [[log in to unmask]] I use IDAL all the time and it seems to me that it would be better to enrich and update an existing source than to start another. IDAL is a project of the IFLA Section of Art libraries of which ARLIS/NA is an active member. J.
