Welcome to the ARLIS/NA New York Chapter!

The New York Chapter of the Art Libraries Society of North America, an organization that fosters excellence in art librarianship and the visual arts, meets several times a year at various libraries, museums and other institutions in the city and surrounding area.

The Celine Palatsky Travel Award is given annually in memory of Celine Palatsky, who served as the Associate Museum Librarian of the Thomas J. Watson Library of the Metropolitan Museum of Art from 1971 to 1999 and as ARLIS/NA New York Treasurer for fourteen consecutive years.

Congratulations to Amye McCarther (New Museum), the recipient of the 2019 Celine Palatsky Travel Award!
