Digital access to the old and the rare: Bibliothèque Artistique


The small shoestring-budget team is trying to create digital access to their rare material as much as they possibly can as they continue the Herculean cataloguing task. They regularly utilise other organisations high quality digital collections. 
Books that are already digitised by other projects (NYPL, Archive.org etc) are furnished with embedded links to that product in the Bibliothèque Artistique's catalogue.
Here is an entry for the title L'ornement des tissus : recueil historique et pratique , utilising the NYPL digital gallery under the "Uniform Resource Locator" tab:

All Bibliotheque Artistique titles with full entries on archive.org under the "Uniform Resource Locator" tab. I love how archive.org virtually flicks throughout the entire tome as you are checking out its bib details.

Titles not included in other institutional projects are photographed and presented in online albums using Jalbum, and Flickr.

The Jalbum digital projects are divided into albums on subject: painting, sculpture, architecture, drawing, fashion, prints/graphic arts, decorative arts.
