The library is pleased to announce that it is currently subscribing to CAMIO—Catalog of Art Museum Images Online. This resource contains about 95,000 works of fine and decorative art that you can present in the classroom, download for research and study, and use to illustrate papers and other assignments. It includes works ranging from 3000 BCE to the present day, including difficult-to-find contemporary art. If you are not already familiar with this easy-to-use resource, try it by following this link [link to your institution’s electronic resource page listing] and bookmark it for future use. What others say: “Our fine art and design students love the ability to open up CAMIO images in high resolution and full-colour, and the ability to search across different art media such as paintings, drawings or sculpture perfectly addresses the interdisciplinary way in which most of our students now work. They are always amazed at the quality of the images they can get from CAMIO, as opposed to the quality they are used to receiving from a Google Image search.” “I am delighted with CAMIO’s content and the ease of access.” “We have taught selected lecture courses in art history since 1998 using digital images. We could not have done so without AMICO, and are very pleased that we’ll be able to continue to use these images via CAMIO.” Teaching guides and curriculum ideasInclude an overview of CAMIO in your library’s bibliographic instruction classes. Suggestions from the Library of Congress for using primary sources in the classroom can be found at http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/ndlpedu/lessons/primary.html. Use scenarios—send us your own examples from faculty or students and we will be happy to post those for others to encourage use at their institutions!
