Craft Research Resources Online
A major digitisation project managed by the Crafts Study Centre and funded by the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) and the Headley Trust, has brought about 4,000 images from the Centre’s remarkable collections to the Internet. The vast database of images can be found along with a series of learning and teaching modules about the makers and their work via the Arts and Humanities data service website .
In 2006 the Arts and Humanities Research Council awarded core funding to the Crafts Study Centre. The Centre has also gained Accreditation from the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council, the national benchmark for standards in the country’s museums.

Nor heed my craft or art.”
