ART MUSEUM IMAGE CONSORTIUM (AMICO) UPDATE


Please excuse any duplication ...


The members of the Association of Art Museum Directors are investigating
the formation of a consortium to make their digital documentation
collectively available to the educational community. Representatives of
major North American Museums are meeting to define the terms of their
collaboration and to outline the nature of a common digital library of
text, image and multimedia data.


Details about this emerging organisation and the formation of the
consortium can be found at www.amn.org/AMICO. The report of the group's
most recent meeting is also available at this site.
