International Directory of Art Libraries (IFLA Publications, 82)

A print counterpart to the IFLA Section on Art Libraries' web site (and the first new book edition since 1985), the Directory covers 2,781 art, architecture, and archeology libraries and library departments in 96 countries. While the book is especially useful for those researchers without convenient Internet access, the addition of individual e-mail addresses for over 4,000 individual librarians increases the opportunity for unrestricted international professional communication as well as more detailed information about individual libraries and their collections, which often feature remote access to their respective online catalogues.
