Abstract
AbstractMuch art historical journal research takes place in proprietary, subscription databases which do not include most open-access, small-press, and artist periodicals. This article discusses the importance of these underrepresented texts and explores two modes of making accessible previously undiscoverable journal content. A central theme of this article is that even where full-text digitization is not possible, librarians need to be committed to making these resources available to scholars and independent researchers alike. The authors present a number of independent, alternative indexing projects and then offer an analysis of social tagging projects in both digital image collections and library online catalogs, including a discussion of their potential relevance to these publications.
