Description
The National Art Library (NAL) is located in beautiful and historic reading rooms overlooking the John Madejski Garden at V&A South Kensington. We hold the UK's most comprehensive public reference collection of literature on the fine and decorative arts, including books, journals, exhibition catalogues, auction house sales catalogues, comics, e-resources and much more. Some material, including archives, children's books and Theatre & Performance research collections, is currently inaccessible due to the move to new study rooms at V&A East. Full access will resume in 2025.
