Careers in Visual Resources Environments and Librarianship
The Visual Resources Association (VRA) is the professional organization for image management professionals in academic, cultural heritage, and commercial environments.  The VRA maintains hiring and retention standards for the profession as well as information on cataloging and collection management for visual resources collections (available at VRA’s Resources page).  The VRA Bulletin is published three times per year and provides a forum for investigating issues relevant to the field.  The full text of the Bulletin from 2004 to the present is available through the UCB Libraries. 

The Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA) serves as the professional organization for librarians in art, architecture, design, and museum libraries.  ARLIS/NA publishes Art Documentation twice a year as a forum for investigating professional issues and contributing to the field.  The full text of Art Documentation from 2000 to the present is available through the UCB Libraries.  ARLIS/NA also publishes occasional papers on issues relevant to the profession.  Student members of ARLIS/NA maintain a blog for art library students and new professionals (ArLiSNAP).  The blog provides a way for students and new professionals to meet, network, and share information.
