The Yale University Office of Digital Assets and Infrastructure (ODAI) provides strategic and operational leadership to Yale’s schools, libraries, museums and other campus units to develop programs and systems for digitization and digital asset management. ODAI was started in 2008 as an initiative of then University Provost, Andrew D. Hamilton.

Mission
To accelerate the development of Yale’s digital content infrastructure into a world-class resource that ensures Yale's digital assets will be discoverable and accessible for teaching and research both now and in the future and to provide a coherent environment for producing, managing, and disseminating the University's intellectual digital assets.

Open Access
ODAI coordinated Yale’s effort to make digital representations of works in the public domain from museum, library, and archive collections at Yale University freely available over the internet. Images in collections can be searched and downloaded through the websites of Yale’s libraries, archives, and museums, and through Discover Yale Digital Content. These unrestricted public domain images may be used without limitations.

There is no article about Open Access to Images.
