Teaching an upper-division art history course enhances learning outcomes in cultural heritage, suggesting valuable links between academia and archival practice.

It highlights using primary source and rare materials to align the course learning outcomes with the practical cultural heritage work of archives, work that is done across libraries, archives, and museums (LAMs), and underscoring the synergy between academic teaching and archival practice.
