Two new databases added to electronic resource collection

The Library added two new databases to our electronic resource collection, ArchiveGrid & CAMIO, both of which can be accessed from our main database page.

“ArchiveGrid offers online access to nearly a million descriptions of archival collections owned by thousands of libraries, museums, historical societies and archives worldwide. ArchiveGrid is an important destination for searching for historical documents, personal papers and family histories held in archives.”

“CAMIO is a premier resource of high-quality art images from around the world contributed and described by leading museums, all rights-cleared for educational use. Every work in CAMIO is represented by at least one high-resolution image and a description.”
