The Frick Art Reference Library is the research arm of the Frick Collection. It is typically located at 10 East 71st Street (between Madison and Fifth Avenue) on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City.[1] As of 2021, the library's reference services have temporarily relocated to 945 Madison Avenue.[2]

The library, founded in 1920, offers public access to materials on the study of art and art history in the Western tradition from the fourth to the mid-twentieth century. It is open to visitors 16 years of age or older and serves the greater art and art history research community through its membership in the New York Art Resources Consortium (which also includes the libraries of the Brooklyn Museum and the Museum of Modern Art).

Within the library is the Center for the History of Collecting—a research organization that supports the study of the formation of collections of fine and decorative arts, both public and private, from colonial times to the present through its fellowships, symposia, and publications.
