Chapter 7: 359-379- Online Archives Response

While reading through this section of our assignment this paragraph caught my attention because of what we've been talking about recently in class. This article discusses how we can take virtual tours of museums that we may never get the chance to visit in real life, or may give us reasons to visit in person. The article is basically showing us how far the internet has brought us. We're now able to critique works that we may never see in person, and expand our knowledge of art, documents, photographs, maps, manuscripts, collections, corporate archives, church records, and historical society records. It really is amazing what we can view through the internet these days, it seems like almost everything is just a mouse click away.
