As a clearinghouse for archival information, the Center staff are beginning to consolidate information about relevant archival collections and have begun to compile databases and bibliographies about the history of collecting. The Library will continue to acquire important dealer archives and is looking forward to beginning an oral history program.

Other research tools may be created in the future, should they prove potentially useful in the judgment of the Advisory Committee.

Objects from archival collections in The Frick Collection and Frick Art Reference Library. For more information, see Library: Archives.
