Interoperability What we know

• ARTstor needs to be a centralized resource for
  the following reasons
• To learn more about uses of digital images and
  users needs
• To offer more interactive tools to those who want
  them
• To create a regulated space for non-commercial
  use
• Users will almost certainly want to use ARTstor
  content and tools along with other digital image
  resources and software platforms
• Need to develop and implement a consistent
  expression and management of rights for all
  digital content in ARTstor
