Extract

arthistoricum.net is a new web portal launched by the Zentralinstitut für Kunstgeschichte in Munich and Heidelberg University Library, in cooperation with the Institute for Art History at the Ludwig Maximilian University Munich. Other partners include the Saxon State and University Library in Dresden, and the project is part of the DFG funding programme for virtual subject libraries. The departure point for the portal is the bibliographic tracing and subject indexing of the digital achievements of international art history (websites and online publications). Building upon this core task, the portal’s fundamental purpose is to increase use of these resources and to develop digital working methods.
