Answers to questions regarding use of the Museum's collection for research

How do I submit a research or reference request?

Please email collections@mjhnyc.org with a description of your project and the materials, or types of material, you are interested in studying. 

Collections are available to researchers on a limited basis depending on the availability of material related to the individual project, as well as the demonstrated need of the researcher to access our material. We do our best to make collection material available digitally or in-person, and we can provide recommendations for repositories of related materials. Please check back as we work towards further digital access to our collections.
