The National Sporting Library & Museum is dedicated to preserving and sharing the literature, art, and culture of horse and field sports. Its 17,000-book collection covers equestrian sports, polo, foxhunting, Thoroughbred racing, steeplechasing, shooting, and angling from the 16th-21st centuries. The John H. Daniels Fellowship program supports the research of visiting scholars. The Library hosts art exhibitions and holds many fine works of sporting art in its permanent collection. The National Sporting Art Museum will open in 2011 on the Library campus, with 11 galleries featuring exhibits of American and European fine sporting art.
Consider joining the Ivy Circle or Chairman's Council in support of the National Sporting Library.
