The Newberry reading rooms are now open to researchers by appointment. Learn about planning your research and making an appointment.

Our exhibition galleries are open to the public again. No appointments are necessary, but please sign in with us in the lobby when you arrive so we can limit gallery entry and promote social distancing.
