El Museo Metropolitano de Nueva York uno de los más importantes del mundo por sus fondos permite el acceso libre a 400.000 imágenes de sus fondos.
Así se suma a otras iniciativas de museos americanos que, más tarde o temprano, seguro serán seguidas por otros museos del mundo......espero.

The Metropolitan Museum’s initiative—called Open Access for Scholarly Content (OASC)—provides access to images of art in its collection that the Museum believes to be in the public domain and free of other known restrictions; these images are now available for scholarly use in any media. Works that are covered by the new policy are identified on the Museum’s website (http://www.metmuseum.org/collections) with the acronym OASC.
