263-2327 Decorative Arts and Material Culture is an Internet project managed by General Library System staff members for the benefit of people in Wisconsin and throughout the world. How people design, produce, and use the tools and materials of everyday life is the increasingly important interdisciplinary field of decorative arts and material culture. The Chipstone Foundation in Milwaukee and the General Library System are working to advance knowledge in new ways by making library and museum resources available through an Internet gateway currently being designed by the libraries' digital projects center. The partnership is between the university and a broad consortium of local organizations, and is designed so that local citizens define their own needs. The National Institute for Health funds the project and might use it as a national model for similar programs throughout the United States.
