Information for Researchers:

While the inaugural exhibit in the Philip Roth Personal Library is always on view during regular library hours, the adjoining Philip Roth Reading Room is available for research by appointment only.

Please contact prpl@npl.org to request an appointment. We would appreciate one week’s advance notice for all research appointments.
