Destiny Ebook Links for the Getty Virtual Library
A great thanks to the Getty Publications Virtual Library (Art). We have been copy cataloging and adding resource links with for as many books as possible that have existing Marc Records. While we have not added the books directly on to our server, we have added the weblink to the book at the Virtual Library so that our students can in their catalog search also find the Getty Virtual Library books as well. This is a huge thing that the Getty Publication Virtual Library has done because it had greatly increased the opportunity for our students to have access to these great resources. We are populating a Public Resource list and when we are finished the project we will add a Copy Category as well. A direct link to the Getty Publication Virtual Library is http://www.getty.edu/publications/virtuallibrary/index.html.
