Derived in part from the resource known as Artifact, a hub of the Resource Discovery Network (RDN), this excellent guide to websites on the ‘arts and creative industries’, provides helpful but not overwordy site descriptions and useful background material including an artists’ index and news features. NB Intute closed in July 2011 and the site has now been archived. No further resources are being added and no changes are being made to existing content, so the resource will increasingly become less useful and reliable.

AMICO was a not-for-profit organization based in the USA (but with UK affiliates as well) which brought together institutions with collections of art for educational use through museum multimedia. Records include high resolution images, multiple views, video and detailed cataloguing information. Full use of the Library is only available through subscription, but sample records are available and a thumbnail image is available for the entire collection. The range of images encompasses contemporary art, Native American and Inuit art, ancient Greek, Roman, and Egyptian works, along with Japanese and Chinese works. Note - The Consortium was dissolved in June 2005 but the website remains online for archival reasons.

The archive offers a complete database and on-line video streaming of all 450 films made by the film department of Arts Council England between 1953 and 1998 and several films produced before 2003 by the dance Department of ACE. The films are available in digital form as the result of a three-year project by the University of Westminster and access is free of charge to UK further and higher education institutions. The collection provides a unique record of British and international post-war art, as well as of documentary film-making in the UK. Many titles in the collection contain rare material about individual artists, while others offer definitive coverage of their subject. Artists featured include Bacon, Spencer, Hockney, Moore and the Young British Artist (YBA) group. Some of the best filmmakers in the UK, including Anthony Minghella and Isaac Julien, were commissioned to make films for the collection. As well as focusing on individual artists, architects, writers and poets, the films document particular art movements that have continued to influence contemporary British Art, such as Surrealism, Dadaism, Futurism and Kinetic art.

The RSA (Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures & Commerce) works to remove the barriers to social progress. It drives ideas, innovation and social change through an ambitious programme of projects, events and lectures. These lectures, available as live webcasts, streamed video or audio, and podcasts, feature some of the world’s most influencial thinkers such as Steven Pinker, and cover a wide range of topics such as whether scientists get the media they deserve, the science of persuasion, secularism, and restructuring the global economy for a sustainable future. There is also a series of podcast interviews with Royal Designers. A particularly notable new addition is the ingenious RSA Animate series, which includes animated interpretations of essays from the likes of Philip Zimbardo, Jeremy Rifkin and Barbara Ehrenreich.
