Research at the
National Music Museum
Due to the NMM's expansion project and ongoing construction, we are currently addressing research inquiries on a limited, case-by-case basis.
If you are interested in coming to the NMM to research our collections, or if are looking for information and materials from our extensive archives, please get in touch with us. We will do our best to respond to your inquiry, but please understand that our capacity to satisfy research inquiries is limited.
As we prepare to re-open our permanent exhibitions, we are reevaluating our research resources, services, fees, and more. This information will be updated as soon as new information is available.

Center for Preservation and Research
The National Music Museum’s new Center for Preservation and Research (CPR) is the result of a partnership between NMM and the Vermillion Chamber and Development Corporation (VCDC), a state-of-the-art preservation center was completed in the summer of 2019.
This facility contains 23,000 square feet of space where our collections are studied, stored, and conserved. In addition to the environmentally controlled secure-storage rooms, the CPR also provides space for conservation work, light construction, hands-on research, group meetings, and houses a comprehensive imaging studio that can be used to fully document our collections.
