We are delighted to announce that the National Gallery Archive catalogue is now available to search through our website.

This facility can be found at http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/archive/search

Through this new feature, anyone can search our archival catalogue and request an appointment to visit the archive to view the physical document. 

The National Gallery Archive contains an array of interesting material from the Gallery’s past and present. 

The wealth of our archival records has effectively more than doubled the number of pages on our site, increasing it by over 30,000 pages. Each individual record has a unique URL which can be shared by researchers and allows a new way for the public to access the Gallery. Built in-house, the search facility takes advantage of the Calm ALMsc API in a unique way, bringing the archival catalogue into our site’s design to create a unified experience. 

We hope to improve this facility over time and intend it to be a vital resource for specialist researchers and the wider public for a long time to come.

For press information please contact me by phone or email. Contact the National Gallery Libraries and Archive directly on lad@ng-london.org.uk or the Project Manager Matt Terrington on matt.terrington@ng-london.org.uk 

All feedback would be gratefully received.

Kind regards,

Katie
