The Packard Library slide room is dedicated to providing 35mm slides and high-resolution, high-quality digital images to teachers for use in classroom presentations. Two digital image databases are available on the web to house images we have purchased and scanned. Artstor (artstor.org) and the Madison Digital Image Database (mdid.ccad.edu) together currently hold tens of thousands of images and provide image viewing presentation software for use in the classroom. The slide room is also equipped to scan images from books, slides and other formats as requested. We will accommodate as many of your requests for digital images as possible (please remember to provide adequate time and image sources to the slide room when placing a request). In addition, if you need instruction on the use of digital image software, please see the Visual Resources Librarian, who can also provide you with passwords and further information.
