The Grolier Club, founded in 1884, is America’s oldest and largest society for bibliophiles. The Grolier Club is headquartered in a 1917 Georgian Revival building, designed by club member and noted architect Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue. In the public galleries and members-only spaces, highlights include a Dutch Colonial-style tavern and a soaring Neoclassical research library with 100,000 volumes that shed light on how the printed word and image have disseminated information for millennia. Keen-eyed visitors will spot a blowfish and a secret stairway.
