Research the Collection
Faculty, student, and outside scholars’ research into objects in the permanent collection enhances their scholarship as well as the institutional knowledge of the Museum. Curatorial staff can facilitate research by making the objects available for study if they are not on view and providing access to our digital and physical object files.
