Projects
Two key projects (please see LinkedIn for more):
- Developed the DAC Open Access Images policy at the Davison Art Center, Wesleyan University, led the internal process of gaining institutional approvals for it, and designed and implemented a technical architecture for open image delivery that leveraged existing enterprise platforms; the policy went into formal effect in 2012 for suitable images conveyed by staff to requestors, and one-click public download of open access images followed in 2013.
- Designed and directed a sequence of five intensive summer projects to digitize thousands of works of art on paper in the Davison Art Center collection and make the resulting images as widely available as copyright allowed, with more than 6,000 DAC Open Access Images provided online by 2019; wrote two successful applications for multi-year IMLS Museums for America grants to support this work; hired and led each summer’s project team.
