The Frick Art Reference Library is the research arm of The Frick Collection. Its reference services have temporarily relocated to the Breuer building at 945 Madison Avenue, called Frick Madison, during the renovation of the Frick's historic buildings. The library, founded in 1920 by Helen Clay Frick (1888–1984), offers public access to materials on the study of art and art history in the Western tradition from the fourth to the mid-twentieth century. It is located at 10 East 71st Street (between Madison and Fifth Avenue) in New York City. The library is housed in a six-story building designed by the architect John Russell Pope.[1]

   Done I found a 3rd party source that was a better citation to use for the renovation rather than their visit page. I thought that this lead was more about the library and its purpose so I made the change. FiddleheadLady (talk) 20:14, 14 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
