Research Request for Archival Materials  

An archivist will respond within 5 business days of receipt and let you know if there are materials in our holdings relevant to your inquiry. In some cases, inquiries can be handled remotely if materials are available in digital format. Otherwise, an in-person visit to consult archival materials may be necessary.

I understand that reproductions of archival materials provided to me, or photographs of archival materials that I take during my examination, are for my personal study and research use only.

 

I agree that I will not distribute these reproductions, nor will I create additional reproductions or excerpts from the archival materials in any medium except for my personal study and research use.

 

I understand that permission must be obtained from the National Gallery of Art Archives to publish reproductions of archival materials or substantial quotes from them in any format, including in print or electronically. The Permission to Publish form must be completed and signed.

 

I agree to abide by research room rules to ensure the protection and preservation of archival materials.
