April 13 to 19 is National Library Week. That may seem like an odd subject for an art museum's blog, but did you know the Nelson-Atkins has a wonderful art reference library?
The Spencer Art Reference Library serves a wide regional audience including university students and professors, art historians and scholars and anyone else interested in art.
The Library Reading Room is open to the public 6 days a week. You can't check out books but you can catch up on the latest publications by Nelson-Atkins curators, conservators and more as well as read daily papers such as The New York Times.
Next week, we will feature several blogs devoted to the latest news and events from the Library. You won't even need a library card!
