"Quite detailed, substantive, and very well organized, this book fills a gap in the literature....The result is highly successful in bringing attention to peripheral yet still very relevant art resources such as cultural and civic group sites, guides to foundations and granting institutions, and information on auction sales and appraisals....An essential guide for all art history researchers, this also would be suitable for all public, special and academic libraries with art history collections."- Library Journal, "This is a very useful guide for art reference and visual resource support for researchers, librarians, historians, educators, collectors, and the whole range of arts professionals or anyone else who has a need to locate Internet data on art."
