The full Call for Participation in the Art Museum Image Consortium's
University Testbed project is now available at
http://www.amn.org/AMICO/testbed.call.html

Multimedia digital documentation of over 20,000 works, from the collections
of the 23 member museums, will be made available under license to selected
university participants during the academic year 1998-1999. AMICO will use
existing distribution channels to deliver access to the Library during the
test-bed phase and beyond. Discussions are currently underway with the
Research Libraries Group to provide distribution support during the
test-bed.

As previously announced, an information session about the testbed project
will be held in conjunction with the upcoming CNI meeting, at 9:30, Sunday
October 26, 1997. If you are unable to attend, please feel free to address
specific questions about the testbed to Jennifer Trant
<[log in to unmask]> or David Bearman <[log in to unmask]> AMICO's
management consultants.
