In July 2007, The Getty Foundation awarded a generous grant to the British School at Rome Archive to support the arrangement and description of part of the John Bryan Ward-Perkins photographic collection. As a result of this 2-year project, this website (www.bsrdigitalcollections.it) of the BSR digital collections was created to present not only the photographic material (Photographs) but also other types of resources which follow into different categories: Maps, Prints, Documents, Postcards, Drawings, Paintings and Manuscripts. The majority of the digital images displayed on this website are represented by the photographs catalogued during the second Getty Foundation funded project (2007-2009).
• In May 2013 the following new collections were added:

- 409 photographs of aqueducts in Lazio from the Thomas Ashby Collection published in I giganti dell’acqua, 2007
- a selection of photographs from the John Henry Parker Collection
- 56 photographs from the Robert Gardner Collection
