Research Library

The Library is closed to outside researchers while we prepare for our move to our future home in the Richard Gilder Center. We will reopen in spring 2023. Museum staff and students may contact the Library to arrange loan pickups, stack browsing appointments, and scan-on-demand services. Please direct any questions to [email protected].

Make a virtual research visit to the Library Archives and explore our rich and growing array of digitized content by and about the Museum.

Read blog posts about Library staff activities on the Library News page.
