Learn about Reed Digital Collections (RDC)

The Visual Resources Center (VRC) manages the Art & Architecture digital collection in RDC, which is primarily used in Art History and Humanities 110 courses. The VRC may accommodate image requests from departments outside the Art Department. These images support teaching and learning at Reed College by providing access to high-resolution images with descriptive metadata for in-classroom use only. 

Image requests typically require 8 to 16 weeks, with additional time needed for orders exceeding 100 images. These images will be cataloged and uploaded to the Art & Architecture collection in Reed Digital Collections (RDC). Faculty are responsible for downloading images and determining how they are used in the classroom (e.g., Google Slides, PowerPoint).

Complete the Image Request Form below, and we will confirm the processing time of your request via email.
