This paper describes the collections and services, as well as the current and future goals, of the Manuel Solari Swayne Library, an information service specializing in the visual arts in Lima, Peru. The library is part of the Museo de Arte de Lima, an institution that holds more than 10,000 objects, providing a survey of Peruvian art from pre-Columbian times to the present day. The museum’s current renovation project includes plans to double the space available to the library and thus create better access to this valuable resource for art history, museology and the visual arts in Peru and Latin America.
