IRIS Consortium
The IRIS Consortium, founded in 1993, is an association of Florentine area art history and humanities libraries consisting today of six members.
The member institutes have joined together to create a union catalog (a shared bibliographic database) available in Internet to scholars all over the world. The IRIS catalog, by virtue of the highly specialized nature of these institute libraries, offers a resource unique in its richness, focussing on the Italian Renaissance, its art history (including material on the conservation and restoration of art objects), its history, literature, philosophy, political thought, science and music.
