The Libraries and Archives of the Autry hold unique, rare and significant primary and secondary resources focusing on the peoples and cultures of the American West. The two library collections, the Braun Research Library and Autry Library, contain rare books, serials, maps, photographs, artwork, sound recordings, and manuscript collections. The Libraries and Archives also provide research access to the Autry’s artifact collections. Collection strengths include the history of the trans-Mississippi West, material culture of ranching and cowboy life, tourism, product advertising, fine art, and the business of western entertainment.
