Andrew W. Mellon Chief Librarian -- The Frick Art Research Library (New York, NY)

Derek Stadler — Tue, 09 Dec 2025 22:34:31 GMT

The Frick Art Research Library

A critical component of the institution is the Frick Art Research Library, founded in 1920 by Helen Clay Frick, daughter of the museum’s founder. Recognized as one of the world’s top art history research centers, it has served students, scholars, and members of the public free of charge for generations.

Responding to the interest shown by Henry Clay Frick in learning more about the artists whose works he had purchased, Helen Clay Frick conducted research on her father's behalf. The data and documents that she shared with him would provide the nucleus for the Frick Art Research Library. After her father's death, Miss Frick founded the Library to further his goals for The Frick Collection: “to encourage and develop the study of the fine arts, and to advance the general knowledge of kindred subjects.” Until her death, Miss Frick was steadfast in her devotion to the Frick Art Research Library and continued to attend to every detail of its development and management. More on the library’s history can be found here.

Today, the library serves an international research community and supports scholarly and programmatic initiatives throughout The Frick Collection. The mission of the Frick Art Research Library is to provide public access to materials and programs focused on the study of fine and decorative arts created in the European tradition from the fourth through the twentieth century, as well as art from around the world that has been influenced by or had an influence on this tradition. In addition, European decorative arts of the fifteenth to the nineteenth century are covered.

Collections:

Over the years, the Library's collections have expanded to include digital resources—from databases to scanned photographs, publications, and other materials—in addition to print books and periodicals. More on the collections can be found here.
