If both institutions information can be searched simultaneously, can a user choose to search just one institutions holdings?
Yes, each time a user performs a search of the IAIA database, they are given a choice of searching just The Minneapolis Institute of Arts or just the Walker Art Center resources or both simultaneously. With “advanced” searches, the user also is able to select only the specific types of information they wish to search, such as The Minneapolis Institute of Arts’ library, or the Walker’s video collection. Various indices within the ArtsConnectEd homepage also allow users to look at resources specific to the Walker Art Center or The Minneapolis Institute of Arts.
