Dear all, I have been appointed associate professor and librarian at the Universita Internazionale dell'arte, Florence Italy.
(Universit? Internazionale dell'Arte - Firenze - *UIA*. www.*uia*firenze.com <http://www.uiafirenze.com/>) The University has a wonderful library that is in part cataloged in the IRIS consortium. http://www.iris.firenze.it/ita/inr_i.html Unfortunately, after the death of prof. Baldini the library had no funds to continue the retro conversion of its collection. Prof. Francesco Gurrieri, now dean of the Faculty, wants very much to continue to organize and digitize the collections which included also a great archival and photographic material collected by the founder of the University and great art historian, the late prof. Carlo Ludovico Ragghianti. I would like to know if you please could suggest an association or a foundation to contact for a grant. Please write to me at this address or at pomaswank at rinascimento-digitale.it Best regards, Annamaria Poma Swank
