Resource Library: Submitting materials (original) (raw)
Resource Library:Submitting Materials
Resource Library has amassed considerable information covering many artists and topics. In late 2016 Traditional Fine Arts Organization(TFAO), publisher of Resource Library, changed focus away from adding additional articles and essays. TFAO is instead concentrating on furthering breadth and depth of information from other sources to place in Topics in American Art. In early 2017 TFAO added hundreds of additional museums to it's list for ongoing study. Find the covered museums here: A-C D-G H-L M-Q R-S T-Z.
For the indefinite future TFAO plans for _Resource Library_to remain inactive while accumulating data for Topics in American Art.
