Archives

The E. H. McCormick Research Library collects archives with a particular emphasis on artists and arts organisations active in, or important to, the Auckland region. The Library welcomes gifts, bequests and long-term loans from artists and their families, galleries, and arts organisations and societies.

Archives may be viewed by making an appointment with the Research Librarian. Most archives are open access but restrictions may apply to some material.

A list of the Library's archives collection is available on the Community Archive website. You can view highlights from the archive collections below.
