Crystal Bridges Library Collections
Art Reference Collection
The collection includes—but is not limited to—general art reference books, artist monographs, exhibition and auction catalogues, periodicals, and museum bulletins. This collection, housed in open stacks, is available to the public during all Museum public hours.
Special Collections and Archives
These collections support and supplement the Museum's mission and collection, and include vertical files on artists and an institutional archive for the Museum. Rare materials are displayed periodically for visitors and are often included in special Museum or Library public exhibitions and programs. Special collections are available for private viewing by appointment.
