The Gibraltar National Museum opened in 1930, and most of its collections are associated with Gibraltar’s military and social history, art, natural history, anthropology, and archaeology. These collections include documents, books, journals, maps, plans, photographs, and unpublished letters and diaries.
The museum Library also has a reference collection that includes volumes, journals and digital collections.
Whilst the Library’s primary function is to serve and support the work of the Museum’s scientific staff, it is also available to bona fide researchers by prior arrangement. Please note that none of the items from the collections are available on loan, and that we are unable to offer inter-library loans or copying at this time.
