Art & Architecture Thesaurus

http://www.getty.edu/research/tools/vocabulary/aat/



Part of the 'Research at the Getty' website, the Art & Architecture Thesaurus (AAT) is a structured vocabulary of around 128,000 terms, scope notes, and other information for describing fine art, architecture, decorative arts, archival materials, and material culture. Simple to use, and well laid out, the AAT is a valuable resource for cataloguers, researchers and information specialists. [GAS, 24 Aug 2006].

SCRAN - Multimedia Resources On History And Culture

http://www.scran.ac.uk/




SCRAN describes itself as "the history and culture site which lets you learn directly by accessing images, movies, sounds and virtual reality". The site offers instant access to images, sounds, movies and learning resources about Scotland, and contains over 330,000 images from museums, galleries and archives. Access was originally free, but is now restricted to subscribers only - however, many institutions already subscribe to SCRAN (access is via an Athens username and password), and home subscriptions are offered at a realistic price. Overall, SCRAN is attractively designed, easy to use, prolifically illustrated, and a very useful and innovative resource. Awarded a Sapling Commendation. [GAS, 20 Jun 2006].
