The Library has recently acquired The Berg Fashion Library, an online resource that includes The Berg Encyclopedia of World Dress and Fashion, full text of more than 70 Berg fashion e-books, additional reference resources, and links to articles. It also provides access to an extensive collection of images from the V&A Museum’s fashion collection; the Philadelphia Museum of Art; the Bath Fashion Museum, the Commercial Pattern Archive (CoPA) database; the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute collection; the MoMu Fashion Museum, Belgium; and images from collections including the London College of Fashion and The Museum at FIT.
Additional material will be added to the resource three times a year. Watch this video to learn more about navigating this resource.
