morgan library logoOnce the private library of financier and avid collector Pierpont Morgan (1837–1913), the library and its holdings were gifted to the public in 1924 by Morgan’s son J.P. Morgan, Jr. The original collection included illuminated, literary, and historic manuscripts, early printed books, and old master drawings and prints.

Over the years, the scope of the library’s collection has grown to include important music manuscripts, early children’s books, Americana, and materials from the twentieth century.  In addition to its extensive collections and special exhibitions, the Morgan offers musical performances, lectures, readings, and video presentations. Daily exhibition and historical tours are available. For groups of twenty or more, the staff offers personalized tour planning assistance.
