The SCIPIO data base developed by the libraries of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Cleveland Museum of Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art is now available on the Research Libraries Information Network (RLIN). SCIPIO lists announcements of forthcoming art sales, subsequent sales price lists and art sales catalogs from major auction houses in the United States and Europe.
Libraries which are not members of RLIN may obtain dial-up access to SCIPTO through the California Library Authority for Systems and Services (CLASS), a multi-type library agency which offers its products and services nationally.
