Our Library

Sotheby’s Institute of Art Libraries in both London and New York are small, specialized resources that support teaching at the Institute. The libraries provide key resources for the taught elements of the graduate-level courses during the first two semesters, as well as for the semester and summer courses. These resources enable students to fulfill course work including seminar papers, group projects and cataloguing exercises.
