PAUart

The aim of the PAUart project is to provide wide audience with scientific and artistic iconographic collections stored in the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences. Starting from 2014, successive digitization and scientific study will cover graphics collection of the Print Room and photographs from the Special Collections of the Scientific Library of the PAAS and the PAS in Cracow as well as photographs from Lanckoronski Phototeca (collection of photographs) of the PAAS and from the Archives of Science of the PAS and of the PAAS. In the long term the project involves digitization of the whole collection. The number of the items gathered in the collection is now estimated at about 240,000.

The PAUart Catalogue is an initiative supporting activities for the development and popularization of culture and science and can be considered as part of the mission of the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences. It aims to disseminate both Polish cultural heritage and world cultural heritage collected by Poles. The implementation of the task in the current year was financed from the program Cultural Heritage by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage (No. 43664/13). The project is managed by Joanna M. Dziewulska, MA..
