NSCAD University Visual Resources Collection

Greetings,

Welcome to the NSCAD University Visual Resources Collection blog. This site is intended to provide
information for our community and patrons.

The NSCAD VRC was initiated to support the teaching of NSCAD U's art history department more than 30 years ago, and over the years has extended its collection to serve the wider scope of NSCAD's community.

Our collection includes over 125,000 35mm slides, approximately 2000 DVDs and videos, and a collection of NFB films. We also have holdings of special collections, including artist videos from the Canada Council Art Bank, and a selection of analog and digital audio recordings.

Over the next few months, we will develop a resource of digital images, in conjunction with the University of Toronto's FADIS image bank. These images will be available for instructors and students to use on campus, with off-campus access as well.

Please send inquiries to ryoung at nscad dot ca


More to come!
