Appointments are recommended. Patrons are required to sign in at the reference desk. Briefcases and book bags must be checked at the Museum's coat check room prior to entering the Library. During inclement weather and colder seasons, we recommend checking outerwear as well. The Library is a non-circulating research collection.
Stacks are closed.
A self-service photocopier is available. Copies cost 15 cents per page. The majority of the collection is accessible through an onsite card catalog only. Researchers requiring extensive use of materials in these subject areas should be aware that retrieval of items from departmental libraries requires an additional waiting period. Patrons are encouraged to indicate their specific subject interests when making arrangements to do research in the Museum's Library.
