THE IMPACT OF DIGITAL IMAGES ON ART HISTORY:
Online Questionnaire
***************************************************
If you are an art historian please read on!
We are conducting a survey into how digital images are being used now
by members of the art history community and how access to such images may
be changing the way research into art history is being conducted. Art history
is intended to encompass historians of all forms of visual culture including
design, architecture, photography and film. Please complete our online
questionnaire at:
<http://www.unn.ac.uk/iidr/CC/survey1.html>http://www.unn.ac.uk/iidr/CC/surv
ey1.html
(We estimate it should take about 15-20 minutes to fill in.)
The survey is intended for art historians, especially those involved
in higher education research or teaching. However, we are also
interested in hearing from librarians, curators and others in art galleries,
museums and other organisations, commercial or public, who use digital
images in
their work or research.
The research is being carried out within the Institute for Image Data
Research at the University of Northumbria by Professor Chris Bailey
and Mrs Margaret Graham and forms the first part of a larger, AHRB funded,
project: Compare and Contrast: a study of the impact of digital image
technology on art history. We will make the results of this
preliminary survey available as soon as possible. Watch for future mailings!
All information on the returned questionnaire will be treated in
confidence. If you would like to be involved in the next phase of the
project please complete the last section of the questionnaire with
your name and contact details. Please answer each question as fully as
possible. All the information that you can provide, however
incomplete, is useful to us.
If you have any queries about the questionnaire or the survey itself,
please contact either Chris or Margaret directly:
