Grove Art Online
...a core reference database of enormous value....The depth of information and extensive coverage of world art places this product in a class of its own... — Library Journal/Netconnect Spring 2003 If ever a digital book made sense, The Grove Dictionary of Art Online might be it. — The New York Times, May 13, 1999 It is gratifying that two years later the online version [of The Grove Dictionary of Art] has been released....A remarkable step in the development of online research material. Acquisition is justified for all institutions with an art audience. — Choice, May 1999 If your patrons can use a well-designed, current, web encyclopedia full of scholarly articles, ready-reference definitions, and cogent interdisciplinary essays on art, then this is the source for them. — Library Journal, February 1, 1999 Graphically crisp, elegant, and easy to negotiate....The Grove Dictionary of Art Online is a fine alternative to the print set, with its full-text searching and expanding image collection.... A valuable resource for academic and large public libraries. — Booklist, May 15, 1999 More than just a repackaging of the original. Its annual subscription price can be justified by the inclusion of new and revised articles…access to 100,000 images via the Bridgeman Art Library…25,000 eternal image links, and links to 650 art-related Web sites, all totalling well over 100,000 images by the end of 1999, numbers that will continue to grow…. This is a growing and evolving product that will serve an ever-widening audience as it expands access to reliable art historical scholarship and convenient image location, truly an exemplar of the melding of electronic text and image that libraries now require and users are coming to expect. — College & Research Libraries, March 2000 Ultimate Web Resource: The 34-volume Grove Dictionary of Art, a monumental publishing effort released in 1996, is now on the World Wide Web. The Grove Dictionary of Art Online contains the entire 30-million-word-text—in 41,000 articles written by 6,802 scholars—along with 750 maps, diagrams and drawings. Many pictures in the book are not available but the missing images can be seen by linking to Internet picture libraries and museum collections. The Dictionary's electronic version (at www.groveart.com) offers the advantage of updates—to be made quarterly at first, then on a monthly basis. — Los Angeles Times, February 10, 1999 People studying art history or working in the field would be grateful to have such an enormous dictionary on their desktop, searchable at the click of a mouse. — Daily Telegraph, January 1999 ...a mammoth one-stop site for art-related information... — Antiques Trade Gazette, December 1998 ...an impressive feat of electronic publishing... — The Times, November 1998 One of the world’s most comprehensive art encyclopedias. — The Daily Mail, January 1999 As a reference work, there is nothing to compare with The Dictionary of Art…— The Daily Telegraph, October 1996 Logically speaking, the next step for [The Dictionary] should be to enlist the aid of the latest technology, by installing their magnum opus on the Internet and charging subscribers to use it.— Independent on Sunday, October 1996
