About the Robert B.
Haas Family Arts Library
The Robert B. Haas Family Arts Library
is located in the newly renovated Paul Rudolph Hall and the newly constructed
Jeffrey Loria Center for the History of Art, designed by Gwathmey Siegel &
Associates Architects. The Haas Family Arts Library brings together the
collections, staff, and other resources previously distributed across the Yale
campus.
It houses the former Art + Architecture
and Drama library collections and the Arts of the Book Collection, as well as
staff and services for the Visual Resources Collection. On site, the library
contains approximately 125,000 volumes on art, architecture, drama, as well as
related rare and unique materials. It serves as the working library for the
schools of Art, Architecture, and Drama as well as the Department of the
History of Art and the Yale University Art Gallery.
Welcome to Digital Art History
Transitioning to a Digital World: Art History, Its Research Centers, and Digital Scholarship
The Kress Foundation has a longstanding interest in art history research centers both here and abroad. For half a century the Foundation has supported the important programs of many such centers, most notably through our institutional pre-doctoral art history fellowship program. Kress also has a strong interest in the emerging digital humanities, and especially in digital art history.
In order to help us all understand better the current state of digital art history and how it relates to our traditional art history research centers, we have sponsored a study of the subject. In partnership with the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media at George Mason University – a key node in the emerging network of the digital humanities under the inspired leadership of Daniel Cohen - we invited Diane Zorich to undertake this study.
Ms. Zorich, a cultural heritage consultant with extensive experience in the digital humanities and art history fields, has now completed this study. We are pleased to share the final report, Transitioning to a Digital World: Art History, Its Research Centers, and Digital Scholarship, with all communities that take an interest in art history, the digital humanities, humanities research centers, and scholarship in the humanities in general.
