摘      要：TWO ISSUES OF LIBRARY TRENDS have dealt with the developing technology for images and ways to index and access this information (Stam & Giral, 1988;Rorvig, 1990). This article discusses a related topic-the current developments in electronic reference sources for the history of art. The advances in automation and the proliferation of databases and projects are viewed in the context of the traditional focus of the discipline. This article describes the new literature in terms of the topics with which art history deals, with special note of the characteristic formats, and the organizations and institutions which have contributed to its development. A review of the currently available databases demonstrates the extensive coverage of art history by electronic sources and discusses their use for librarians and researchers.
