Collection Inventories and Finding Aids

The Special Collections and Institutional Archives departments create finding aids for the Getty Research Institute's archival and visual resource collections and for a few historical records of the J. Paul Getty Trust. A "finding aid" describes the scope and contents of a group of records and provides an inventory of materials within the records.

For up-to-date finding aid and collection information please visit the Research Collections pages at:

This resource is no longer being updated and will be turned off in the fall of 2023.
