Important information
The three libraries are currently closed for an indefinite period.
Their reopening will be announced on this site as soon as possible.
The libraries specialise in archaeology and the arts of the five continents, from Prehistory to the present day, and are open not only to museum staff but also to researchers, students, and anyone wishing to consult their resources. Their primary role, however, is to support the work of the museum. Visits to the library are by appointment only.
