About the LuEsther T. Mertz Library
The LuEsther T. Mertz Library stands within the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx, New York City. Established in 1899, it took LuEsther Mertz's name in the 1990s. The library is the largest botanical research library in the United States, and it was the first library whose collection focused entirely on botany.
Its books on botany and horticulture serve studies in fields from history and anthropology to ethnobotany, landscape and building design, and environmental policy. Its shelves carry up-to-date scholarly books and journals along with many rare, historically significant works.
Robert W. Gibson drew up the Renaissance Revival design in 1896, and the building was finished five years later. It has four stories and was first known as the Museum Building, then as the Administration Building. Its facade is gray-buff brick with buff terracotta. Outside the front entrance are the sculptural Fountain of Life and an avenue of trees, the Tulip Tree Allee. All three were contributing resources when the garden became a National Historic Landmark in 1967, and in 2009 they became New York City designated landmarks.
