12:00 - 12:05 Introductions

12:05 - 12:15pm Online Artists’ Book Discovery

Corina Reynolds, Executive Director of Center for Book Arts

How do we discover artists' books online? What would make artists' book discovery easier? Center for Book Arts and Book Art Review are working on a new platform for artists' book discovery and would like your help.

12:20 - 12:30pm Franklin Furnace Archives

Nicole Rosengurt, Archives Assistant, Franklin Furnace Archives

Franklin Furnace Archive has long been a historic repository of artists books, and in the 46 years in which they've been collecting, they have amassed a collection of vertical files related to works and artists which represent the robust history of both experimental and canonical art. The Franklin Furnace Archive is in the process of fully digitizing this collection of vertical files, with the intent of publishing and disseminating this work to allow unprecedented access to the "behind the scenes" context and content of these artists and their scene. In this talk, Nicole will discuss the process of digitization and cataloging that they are undertaking, with emphasis on digitization standards and metadata development. They will also discuss their plans for building and publishing the collection online, and the benefits to research this opportunity will provide.

Alex Austin, LIS Student at Pratt School of Information and Graduate Assistant, Pratt Institute Libraries

Holly Wilson, Liaison Librarian, Humanities & Social Sciences, Associate Professor, Pratt Institute Libraries
