Art librarianship Course
Sheila Fox
Thanks for your query results. I would just add that the Palmer School
(C. W. Post, Brookville, LI, NY) offers an art librarianship course
periodically. I took the class with Tom McNulty, Art Librarian at the
Bobst Library, and it was superb.
Thanks again,
Sheila Fox (recent Palmer School graduate)

ARLIS-L:
I am not aware of a class in art librarianship taught at The University of
Texas. Nancy Schuller teaches a class in Visual Resources Collections
which is very different than a class in art librarianship. If anyone has
further information about this class offered with Pratt, I would be very
interested.
Thanks, Laura
