Introduction

It has been my distinct pleasure to work with Evelin Morgenstern, Acting 
Director of the Initiative Fortbildung für wissenschaftliche 
Spezialbibliotheken und verwandte Einrichtungen e.V., to develop the 
agenda for this colloquium, which addresses issues that increasingly 
have no geographic or linguistic boundaries. The internet has made 
communication infinitely easier, but at the same time, technology and 
social networking -- along with the patron demands that come with them 
-- are outpacing the capacity of traditional library systems and budgets 
to support them. Above all, the pace of change in scholarly 
communication and research over the past few years has accentuated the 
need for deep collaboration in order to move forward in a sustainable 
way. The speakers at this colloquium are esteemed col-leagues and 
leaders in forging new relationships that will be required to build 
innovative solutions totoday's challenges. Joint digital initiatives, 
shared system platforms, new models of outreach, and crowdsourcing are 
some of the topics of critical interest to librarians that will be 
addressed over these two days. The intention of this colloquium is for 
participants to not only gain new insight and creative guidance for 
working collaboratively, but to participate in conversations that will 
serve as catalysts for collaborative projects between American and 
German art and museum libraries. I wish to thank the Arbeitsgemeinschaft 
der Kunst- und Museumsbibliotheken (AKMB), Bibliothek & Information 
(BI-International), Checkpoint Charlie Stiftung and the Initiative 
Fortbildung für wissenschaftliche Spezialbibliotheken und verwandte 
Einrichtungen e.V. for making the colloquium possible. I am deeply 
honored to participate in this event, which has been organized in 
association with my receiving the 2013 John Jacob Astor Award in 
Libraryand Information Science from the Checkpoint Charlie Foundation 
(*/Deborah Kempe/*).

10:00 a.m.

Welcome by */Professor Dr. Moritz Wullen/*, Director of the 
Kunstbibliothek -- Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz und */Dr. Joachim 
Brand/*, Deputy, including a presentation of the "new" Kunstbibliothek

10:45 a.m.

Reaching Out to Gather in: Promoting Art Research in the Twenty-First 
Century (*/Milan R. Hughston/*, Chief of Library and Museum Archives, 
The Museum of Modern Art, New York

/Milan Hughston will discuss the various ways that the MoMA Library and 
Archives reaches beyond its traditional constituencies and physical 
spaces to engage new audiences.  He will focus on activities made 
possible by the Museum's expansion in the early/mid 2000s in addition to 
advances in technology that expand the parameters of its 
patrons.  Topics include use of library/archives as social spaces, 
artists in residence programs, leadership in artists' books conferences, 
and publications/social media.  He will also describe the benefits 
of////consortial marketing action through activities of the New York Art 
Resources Consortium////[NYARC]. /

//

11:30 a.m.

A different animal? Marketing for museum libraries at the time of 
scarcity (*/Dr. Stefan Brandt, /*Geschäftsführer, Hamburger Kunsthalle)

/While the necessity for museum marketing has been recognized by museum 
directors since decades, the marketing needs of museum libraries are 
typically not on top of the priority list. Under the pressure of 
declining public contributions in Germany, the activities of museum 
management are mostly limited to the aim of maintaining a budget that 
allows keeping the museum libraries open at all.. The presentation will 
focus on options for outreach activities of museum libraries despite 
lack of finances. In addition, approaches for museum management to 
support the libraries and maximize their impact will be discussed. /

12:30 p.m.

/Lunch break /

1:30 p.m.

Lights, Camera, Action: Collaborative Digitization Projects at the Frick 
Art Reference Library (*/Dr./**/Stephen J. Bury/*, Andrew W. Mellon 
Chief Librarian, Frick Art Reference Library, New York)

/The digitization strategy of the Frick Art Reference Library is not one 
of mass digitization of the whole collection. This is largely for 
copyright reasons but also because of the disruption to public service 
that this would cause. Instead it has embarked on a series of niche 
projects that offer high-quality small-scale collaborative projects that 
add to the scholarly corpus of art history. These have included 
partnerships with NYARC partner Brooklyn Museum Library (Gilded Age I & 
II), with the Metropolitan Museum of Art Library (Knoedler, Macbeth, 
Auction Results), and with Long Island University/Hearst Archive (Gilded 
Age III). There is also a proposed international collaboration to 
digitize major American and European photo-archives, whilst the Archives 
have taken part in a virtual re-unification project with the University 
of Pittsburgh of the Andrew Carnegie -- Henry Clay Frick correspondence. 
We////have also worked with commercial organizations (e.g. Brill) in a 
public-private partnership to provide digital images of auction catalogs 
for ASCO (Art Sales Catalogues Online). There are upsides and downsides 
to collaboration and this paper will address these issues./

//

2:15 p.m.

Cultural Heritage Online. Digitization Projects at Heidelberg University 
Library (*/Alexandra Büttner M.A./*/,/Universitätsbibliothek Heidelberg)

/Over the past years Heidelberg University Library has acquired a 
comprehensive expertise and knowledge in the field of digitization. 
Through various national and international projects Heidelberg 
University Library has strived to secure and unite cultural assets, and 
to provide researchers from all around the world a free and systematic 
access to these new online sources. The field of digitization ranges 
from medieval manuscripts, art- and satirical journals, art historical 
primary sources, to auction catalogues. The presentation will focus on 
some of the key digitization projects at Heidelberg University Library 
as well as collaborative and networking aspects./

3:15 p.m.

/Coffee break/

//

3:45 p.m.

Collaboration: connecting collections and people (*/Deirdre Lawrence/*, 
Principal Librarian, Libraries and Archives, Brooklyn Museum of Art)

/This presentation will focus on the keys of successful collaboration 
based on experiences with several New York library collaborations 
including the Art Museum Library Consortium which led to the development 
of the New York Art Resources Consortium (NYARC) and an ongoing 
collaboration with Pratt Institute's School of Library & Information 
Studies that has involved students working at the Brooklyn Museum, 
Brooklyn Historical Society and the Brooklyn Public Library and the 
NYARC libraries. This presentation will also cover ongoing local 
discussions with the NYC7 Group with a goal to develop programs of 
mutual interest including digitization and collection development. The 
presentation will focus on the development and sustainability issues of 
collaborations between these libraries and will feature images of 
collections that have been made more accessible through these various 
collaborations./

4:30 p.m.

Integrative cooperative art search from the Middle Ages up to the 
present: arthistoricum.net, the Virtual Library for Art (*/Dr. Katja 
Leiskau/*, Sächsische Landesbibliothek -- Staats- und 
Universitätsbibliothek Dresden and */Laura Held/*, Head of the Library, 
Kunst- undAusstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, Bonn)

/In January 2012, the previously independent online resources of the two 
German Special Interest Collections for Art joined together, forming the 
new *Virtual Library for Art*//- *arthistoricum.net.*//The new 
offer**//pools the resources and know-how of the responsible partner 
institutions Heidelberg University Library (UB Heidelberg) and the Saxon 
State and University Library (SLUB Dresden), thus making this portal an 
essential forum for research and teaching. arthistoricum.net is 
presented in cooperation with the //Art History Department of the Ludwig 
Maximilian University Munich (LMU) 
<http://www.kunstgeschichte.uni-muenchen.de/ifk/lehrstuehle/lehrst_kohle/index.html>//(Prof. 
Dr. Hubertus Kohle) as well as with //other partners 
<http://www.arthistoricum.net/en/partner/>//. /

/A thorough and comprehensive overview of art historical publications 
and data sources is the goal of arthistoricum.net, and builds the core 
of its new //search <http://www.arthistoricum.net/en/search/>//function. 
arthistoricum.net facilitates internet-based open access academic work 
and publishing. Contents going beyond bibliographic resources are also 
available. Individual researchers and working groups are invited to 
present their results of research on arthistoricum.net and//enhance 
their public visibility.///

/In March 2013 the internet presence of the AKMB, the German ARLIS, 
became totally part of the arthistoricum.net community. Another target 
that opens a lot of possibilities for further collaborations in the 
field of virtual art library performance and art-related research./

Different Types of E-Book Acquisition -- from Patron-Driven Acquisition 
to Consortium and National Licensing Models at German Academic Libraries 
(*/Dr. Michaela Hammerl/*, Zeitschriften und elektronische Medien, 
Bayerische Staatsbibliothek)

models practiced in Germany. It will focus on how patron-driven 
acquisition was established at several German academic libraries. 
Furthermore, diverse types of consortia and national licensing programs 
will be introduced. Finally, an outlook of ongoing strategies by the 
German Research Foundation (DFG) will be provided./

"Oops, Seite nicht gefunden": Collection Building in the Digital World 
(*/Lily Pregill/*, NYARC Project Coordinator & Systems Manager, Frick 
Art Reference Library, New York)

/Art research materials that have historically been collected by museum 
libraries -- including catalog raisonnés, auction catalogs, and artists' 
books -- are increasingly being published digitally. In 2012, the New 
York Art Resources Consortium received an Andrew W.  Mellon grant to 
explore developing a web archiving program to collect born digital art 
research materials, focusing on publication trends, the technical 
landscape, and workflow scenarios. Lily Pregill will present the 
outcomes of this investigation and discuss the challenges and 
opportunities that libraries face in managing hybrid print and digital 
collections./

1:00 p.m.

Digital Divides, Digital Commonalities: Teaching Art History 
Internationally (*/Prof. Dr. Robin Schuldenfrei/*, Assistant Professor, 
Institute of Art and Visual History, Humboldt-University zu Berlin)

/From the perspective of an American academic presently working in a 
German university, Robin Schuldenfrei will address changing media and 
resources to consider their ramifications for teaching art history 
students today. She will consider present initiatives at the Humboldt, 
including the major new Cluster of Excellence project "Image Knowledge 
Gestaltung. An Interdisciplinary Laboratory" 
(//http://www.interdisciplinary-laboratory.hu-berlin.de/en//)./

1:45 p.m.

Crowdsourcing: Cooperation on the Internet (*/Prof. Dr. Hubertus 
Kohle/*, Institut für Kunstgeschichte der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität 
München)

/Asking for the "wisdom of crowds" (James Surowiecki) by crowdsourced 
collaboration on the Internet represents a paradigm shift in data 
acquisition, the consequences of which we do not yet understand. 
Hubertus Kohle will present some of the opportunities and challenges by 
taking a look at the project ARTigo (www.artigo.org 
<http://www.artigo.org>): Within three years, there were gathered almost 
10,000,00 taggings describing works of art. He will try to demonstrate 
the far-reaching consequences of such social tagging projects for data 
and tagger evaluation and also address the delicate relationship between 
expert and layman culture in this regard. /
