Digital Archiving and Long Term Preservation Research Program - "In December 2000, Congress appropriated $100 million (rescinded to $99.8 million) for a national digital-strategy effort, to be led by the Library of Congress. The Library was chosen not only because of its mission to "sustain and preserve a universal collection of knowledge and creativity for future generations," but also because of its role as one of the leading providers of high-quality content on the Internet. . . . . The Library will work closely with federal partners to assess considerations for shared responsibilities. Federal legislation calls for the Library to work jointly with the Secretary of Commerce, the director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and the National Archives and Records Administration. The legislation also directs the Library to seek the participation of "other federal, research and private libraries and institutions with expertise in the collection and maintenance of archives of digital materials," including the National Library of Medicine, the National Agricultural Library, the Research Libraries Group, the Online Computer Library Center and the Council on Library and Information Resources. . . . . Information is being produced in greater quantities and with greater frequency than at any time in history. Electronic media, especially the Internet, make it possible for almost anyone to become a "publisher." How will society preserve this information and make it available to future generations? How will libraries and other repositories classify this information so that their patrons can find it with the same ease that they can locate a book on a shelf?"

The Evolution of the American Conservation Movement, 1850-1920 - The development of a conservation ethic in the United States was (and is) a process that displayed a great deal of heterogeneity, and to a certain extent, a good deal of contentious debate about what might be done to conserve natural resources and landscapes throughout the country. Some of the phenomena that manifested themselves during this period included a perceived crisis in American national identity and purpose, expressions of anti-urbanism, and the growth of travel literature. All of these subjects (and quite a few more) are explored within this fine documentary archive of materials developed by the American Memory group at the Library of Congress. In total, the archive contains 62 books and pamphlets, 140 Federal statutes and Congressional resolutions, various Presidential proclamations, 170 prints and photographs, and 2 motion pictures. The collection can be searched by keywords, or users may elect to browse an index of subjects, authors, or document titles.

Museums and the Online Archive of California - (MOAC) - Almost 150,000 images of searchable historical and cultural materials from 11 public and private museums in California. The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art has just signed on as well. With just 5 percent to 7 percent of U.S. museum collections on exhibit at any time, online museums can provide access to pieces that are rarely or never displayed and also allow researchers and art lovers from around the world to see works that they otherwise would have to travel to see, said Able. "I have a dream when all museum collections will be completely digitized to be available and accessible to be brought into any home or classroom at the click of a mouse," he said. "We will really then begin to achieve the potential of museums." The site is funded through the University of California and federal grants.

La Fayette: Database of American Art, The Louvre - "In the 1880s, American artists began to live and work in artist's colonies located outside French urban centers. Inspired by the example of French Impressionists, some chose to work in the new suburban leisure centers near the perimeter of Paris such as Giverny, where Claude Monet had settled in 1883. American artists who moved to Giverny included John Singer Sargent, Frederick MacMonnies, Willard Metcalf, Lila Cabot Perry, and Theodore Robinson. Other artists congregated in coastal villages like Etaples and Brest in the north or Collioures in the south. The popularity of these picturesque regions was partly dictated by the popularity of the Impressionist style, which valued the spontaneous effects created by outdoor painting . . . . The American artists who lived and worked in France developed a network of lasting relationships with French artists and collectors. Some of these liaisons were economic, as American patrons and collectors began to exert a stronger influence on the Parisian art world. Paul Burty Haviland, grandson of the American founder of the Limoges porcelain firm, was a painter as well as a reliable patron to artists like Pablo Picasso and Amedeo Modigliani. . . . . This bilingual online catalogue presents more than 1,700 works produced by United States artists that entered the national collections of France before 1940 . . . . These artworks have been drawn from public collections all over France." - (Learn about the Artists' Colonies, Patronage Networks, Artistic Training in Paris, and more)
