Digitization Project with ABsOnline is funded!

We recently received the good the news from NYSCA that we can begin our project to digitize the Independent Press archive. Designed in collaboration with Artists' Books Online (ABsOnline) and the Digital Library at the University of Virginia (UVa), the project intends to make artists' books accessible online in order to promote critical discussion and form an overview of production and collection patterns in the field. It will also beta test collection sharing and a distributed content model. Tate Shaw is coordinating the project, and we've already had a good planning and training session with Johanna Drucker and staff at UVa. See: Artists' Books Online
