The Library collection
The Library covers the same areas as Tate Collection (British art since 1500
and international art from 1900). Its strengths are modern and contemporary art,
with over 40,000 books, more than 140,000 exhibition catalogues and many rare items
in its special collections. The emphasis is on fine art in the Western tradition
although coverage is being extended to other world areas. Architecture and design
are only selectively collected and photography is covered primarily within fine
art practice.
