Rare, unique, and fragile items are held in the Miller Special Collections where they are maintained under secure, controlled conditions. The material housed in Special Collections furthers the mission of the library as a whole, which is to provide a learning environment designed to inspire creative students and faculty at Otis College of Art and Design.
The collections are available for use on site by members of the Otis Community as well as visiting scholars and the general public. Please make an appointment in advance of your visit.
