Hello TMSers,

Does any institution out there directly scan artwork?  For example, we have a large collection of prints, photographs, and works on paper.  It is time consuming to photograph each one of these works.  However, (technically) we could scan these works.  Obviously, there are conservation concerns, that's why I was curious if anybody out there directly scans works on paper.

Thanks,
Rob Morgan
