acquisition informationStaff, interns, and volunteers of the Mr. and Mrs. Allan C. Balch Art Research Library of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) have contributed to the organization and maintenance of the files since the opening of the museum on Wilshire Boulevard in 1965. Materials dating before the 1960s were inherited from the museum's parent entity, the Los Angeles Museum of History, Science, and Art (now the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County) at Exposition Park, from which the art collection was separated in 1961 to form LACMA. The library currently receives most materials either directly by mail or by donation from curators, board and committee members, artists and their families, or other private donors.
