NOTICE: Improvements are currently underway in FRESCO. Changes to search options and displays may result during this process. We apologize for any inconvenience—a new and improved catalog will debut at the end of 2008.
Admission and Use
The Frick Art Reference Library was founded to serve "adults with a serious interest in art," among them scholars, art professionals, collectors, and students. The Library is, therefore, open to all researchers with or without institutional affiliation. The Library is open to all researchers free of charge. Use of the Library requires registration and adherence to the following:
- First-time researchers are required to bring a photo ID and arrive before 3:00 p.m. on weekdays or 11:00 a.m. on Saturdays;
- Undergraduate students wishing to use the Library must bring a letter of introduction and are offered limited services;
- Registered readers must have their Library card to enter.
