National American Indian & Alaska Native Heritage Month

A Special Report focusing on the Heritage of American Indians and Alaskan Natives is now available.

National American Indian & Alaska Native Heritage Month is celebrated annually in November to recognize the intertribal cultures and to educate the public about the heritage, history, art, and traditions of the American Indian and Alaska Native people.

The tradition dates back to the early 1900s when there was an effort to gain a day of recognition for the significant contributions the First Americans made to establishing and growing the United States.

Many individuals contributed to the first celebrations. Initially, the Boy Scouts set aside a day each year to recognize the First Americans. Many state governments presented endorsements to the White House in an effort to have a proclamation issued.

Later, several states designated a day for their state to celebrate these people. However, there was no official day that covered the entire country until 1990 when President George H.W. Bush approved a joint resolution designating November as National American Indian Heritage Month.

NewsBank’s Special Report is designed to support this month’s celebration. The Site includes current and retrospective perspectives on the contributions and issues of these people. All articles are easily accessed and can be printed or e-mailed from within the site. New articles are added daily.

Numerous images with captions and maps are included to further enhance the coverage.

Suggested search terms to help locate additional information in your NewsBank products are listed to encourage further research.

The National American Indian & Alaska Native Heritage Month Report, like all others, is available in our new format that provides easier navigation of the articles, images, maps, suggested search terms and web links.

NewsBank has always been committed to providing libraries with the best coverage of important issues and events through its products and Special Reports. Currently featured are Reports on Rosa Parks, Natural Disasters, and Iraq. All Reports are now visible on your product menu page or from within your product search screen.

Earthscape

This month, Earthscape highlights educational materials on earthquakes and natural
hazards. An e-seminar from the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory entitled "How
Predictable Are Natural Disasters?" is offered to all subscribers. We've added several
papers from American Rivers and the Pacific Institute for Studies in Development,
Environment, and Security exploring the health of our rivers and quality of our water.
The 2005 Environmental Sustainability Index from CIESIN is included, as well as their
analysis of Natural Disaster Hotspots.

Recent Additions to ARTstor

* Recent additions to the ARTstor Digital Library *

We are delighted to announce the addition of the following new image
archives to the ARTstor Digital Library. Both archives deal with
essential aspects of the human experience and they should be of
interest to a wide range of scholars and teachers. These archives have
been integrated into the Image Gallery.


----------------------------------------------------------------------


* Images from Vesalius’ Renaissance treatise on human anatomy *

One of the most valued digital collections at Northwestern University
is a web site devoted to Andreas Vesalius’ pioneering treatise on
human anatomy, entitled On the Fabric of the Human Body (De humani
corporis fabrica; first published in 1543). Thanks to Professor Daniel
Garrison, Professor of Classics at Northwestern, we are delighted to
be able to make available to ARTstor users 275 high resolution images
of the anatomical illustrations from Vesalius’ great treatise. These
woodcut illustrations became the fundamental basis of medical art and
illustration for generations to come and helped enable Vesalius’
treatise to transform the subject of human anatomy throughout the
western world. These images, with their associated scholarly
information, will greatly enhance ARTstor’s value to scholars and
teachers working in a range of fields, from the history of art and
medicine to the study of attitudes toward and visual representations
of “the body” in early modern culture.

For the Northwestern University Vesalius web site please see
http://vesalius.northwestern.edu/.

To locate these images and other images related to Vesalius in
ARTstor, search the keyword VESALIUS.


----------------------------------------------------------------------


* The Farber Gravestone Collection *

One of the most highly prized photographic archives at the American
Antiquarian Society is the photographic archive known to Americanists
as Farber Gravestone Collection. Containing more than 13,500 images
documenting in great detail the sculpture on more than 9,000 early
American grave markers, mostly made prior to 1800, the archive is
especially strong for central and southern New England, with selective
coverage of Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont. The collection further
includes selected images of gravestones from the Middle Atlantic and
southeastern United States, the Maritime Provinces of Canada, and
Great Britian.

These early gravestone sculptures are both a significant form of
artistic creation – the earliest coherent body of American sculpture –
and provide a wealth of biographical information, such as name, death
date of the deceased, stone location, and information concerning the
stone material, iconography, the inscription, and (when known) the
carver. The photographs are of such high quality that individual
“hands” (carvers) may be identified even when a given sculptor is
anonymous. As Harriet Merrifield Forbes noted in her study on
gravestones, "The colonists used their finest skill and raised their
most enduring and characteristic works of art in memento mori." In
recent years, however, these storehouses have been endangered by
vandalism, natural erosion (hastened by air pollution), and theft.

The late Daniel Farber of Worcester, Massachusetts, and his wife,
Jessie Lie Farber, were responsible for the largest portion of the
collection. We are most grateful to the American Antiquarians Society
for sharing this wonderful resource through ARTstor.

To locate these images in ARTstor, search the keyword FARBER. These
images, along with related images in the Image Gallery, may be found
under subject headings such as TOMBSTONES or FUNERARY SCULPTURE.

ARTstor personal Collections for Instructors

* Personal Collections available in ARTstor *

We are pleased to announce the availability of ARTstor's Personal
Collection Tools. We have recognized from the outset that it is
essential to enable and facilitate the integration of ARTstor's
content with other digital content available to ARTstor users. These
Personal Collection Tools have been developed to allow individuals to
add local images into the online ARTstor environment. Once uploaded,
those images can be added to public or private image groups and used
like any other image in ARTstor.

First, here is an example of how Personal Collections can be helpful.
Professor Smith is teaching an architecture class. He has taken
several digital photographs on a recent trip to Chicago and would like
to use them for a lecture. He is aware of the ability to do that with
the Offline Image Viewer. However, Professor Smith encourages his
students to review his lectures online in ARTstor Image Groups. Unless
Professor Smith can upload his images for creating his Image Group –
the basis of his lecture – he will only be able to present his lecture
offline. Sharing his lecture through an OIV presentation file is still
possible but more difficult than directing students to the ARTstor
website to review his Image Group.

To get started, you should download and print this handout[2] with
tips for building your Personal Collection. The next time you enter
ARTstor, you will see two new links at the bottom of the “Tools” menu
in ARTstor: Personal Collection Image Upload and Personal Collection
Administration.

If you do not see those links under the Tools menu, check 3 things:

- You are logged in;
- You have instructor privileges; and
- Your institutional contact has enabled Personal Collections for your
institution.

Your institutional ARTstor contact can decide when to activate
Personal Collections for your institution. You can contact them for
more information. [If you are an ARTstor contact but you do not know
how to enable Personal Collections for your institution, please contact
us.

Use the “Personal Collection Image Upload” tool to add your images to
ARTstor. When you add an image from a local drive (be it something
scanned, purchased, or taken with a digital camera), the image file is
uploaded to the remote ARTstor server and a derivative image file that
allows you to zoom in on the image (like any other ARTstor image) is
created in FPX format. Original images can be uploaded in any of the
following image formats: JPG / JPEG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, or PNG.

The upload screens include disclaimers to inform you of your
responsibilities in selecting and posting content and will indicate
that neither ARTstor, nor the institution with which you are
affiliated, will be screening such content and therefore can not take
responsibility for it.

The original uploaded file is then discarded, since our keeping it
would (depending upon the size of the file) begin to represent a
significant amount of storage space. If you decide to save/download
your uploaded images out of ARTstor, the image will be exported in jpg
format at the original dimensions. (These images will not be
restricted to the 400 pixel maximum; if a 1600 x 1600 pixel image is
uploaded, a 1600 x 1600 pixel JPG will be available for download.)

Please note that in order to save Personal Collection images into an
OIV presentation, you must be using the most recent version of the OIV
software, version 2.0. OIV derivatives are created hourly and can be
downloaded into OIV 2.0 an hour or two after uploading new images.

Each time you log in, you will now see a "My Personal Collection"
listed after the other ARTstor Collections in the ARTstor Library.
This Collection can be searched, opened and browsed just like other
ARTstor collections; but it is visible only to you for browsing and –
if you choose – the rest of your institution for searching.

There are two levels of security for Personal Collection images:
limited access and institutional access. Each image is assigned a
limited access security level by default. Access levels can be altered
on an image-by-image basis. Here are the definitions for both levels
of security.

Limited access:

- Only a search by the creator will retrieve the image
- Only the creator can save the image into an Image Group
- Only the creator can download a copy of the image
- Only the creator can print a copy of the image
- Only the creator can save the image into an OIV presentation
- All other users can view the image when saved in an Image Group to
which they have access

Institutional access:

- A search by any institutional user will retrieve the image
- All institutional users can save the image into an Image Group
- All institutional users can download a copy of the image
- All institutional users can print a copy of the image
- All institutional users can save the image into an OIV presentation

Use the “Personal Collection Administration” tool to manage your
uploaded images. You can catalog uploaded images here and sort them
into topics for browsing.

This capacity is currently limited to users with Instructor
Privileges. You will receive 500MB of Personal Collection space for
your images. (500MB could potentially store up to 2000 image files –
depending on the image resolution.)

NetLibrary eBook of the Month

October eBook of the Month:
The Sacred Neuron: Extraordinary New Discoveries Linking Science and Religion

Why do we think that some things are beautiful, and others ugly? Why do we think that some things are good, and others evil? Why do we think that
some things are true, and others false? These are questions that have puzzled thinkers for millennia. In the past they have been answered by
separating our emotional from our rational responses. But recent scientific research suggests that the questions now deserve very different answers.

In his fascinating and original new book, John Bowker shows from this research that reason and emotion work much more closely together in forming
human opinions and judgments than has previously been supposed. His argument that faith and belief can be rooted in reason has stunning implications
for the increasingly dangerous relationship between different religions and cultures, and also for our understanding of the meaning of 'God'.

Designed to increase awareness of online resources and highlight the value of your eBook collection, the October eBook of the Month is provided
through the generous support of I.B. Tauris Publishers. Don't miss this unique opportunity to showcase your NetLibrary collection by sharing this
in-depth exploration of science and religion.
