About the Center

In the digital realm, the Center’s goal is to share its open digital resources in formats that allow for easy

creative and scholarly reuse in order to contribute to the

study of British Art worldwide.


Yale University’s Open Access Policy

General Principle:

The preservation, transmission, and advancement of knowledge in the digital age are promoted by the creative use and reuse of digitized content for research, teaching, learning, and creative activities. The goal of digitization is to enhance access to the collections in Yale’s museums, archives, and libraries for students, faculty, and the world.

To this end, Yale will make digital copies of unrestricted public domain collections available for use without limitations through the University’s electronic interfaces.Emmanuelle Delmas-Glass @edgartdata
