The College of Arts and Sciences worked out with the Library a plan for
meeting the image needs of A&S faculty after the closing of the Knight
Visual Resources Facility. To this end, two programs have been set up: 1. Digitization of images in support of teaching
Digitization, metadata creation and upload of images on Luna Insight and
ARTstore will be done by the Digital Consulting and Production Services
(DCAPS).
The rough turn-around time is:
1-100 images - within 3 weeks
101-500 images - 4-6 weeks
500+ images - within 3 months.
Rush orders of 1-5 images can be processed by the end of the following
business day and delivered on CD or by ftp.
Orders should be brought to DCAPS, 107 Olin Library.
Order forms can be downloaded at http://dcaps.library.cornell.edu/forms/ Image Added.
For more information, contact vrhelp-l@cornell.edu. 2. Competitive grants for Digital Collections
A special grants program will be launched to encourage and support
collaborative and creative use of resources through the creation of digital
content of enduring value to the Cornell community and scholarship at large.
Open to faculty in A&S, the program will focus on digitizing collections
(both visual and textual) that are instrumental in supporting learning and
teaching. Funds will cover expenses such as digitization and metadata
creation, collaboration planning, and wages or summer stipends for research
assistants. More information about the Cornell University Library's visual resources
services is available at http://images.library.cornell.eduImage Added. |
