We’re taking a leaf out of @nglspecialcollectionsandarchives‘s book from last year and having our own @yearinreview of the best Museums, Libraries and Collections of the year:

@thegetty

@huntingtonlibrary

@gifitup2015

@upennmanuscripts

@uwmarchives

@uwmspeccoll

@historicroyalpalaces

@brooklynmuseum

@lindahall

@detroitlib

@othmeralia

@uispeccoll

@cityoflondonlibraries

@smithsonianlibraries

You have no idea how much it pains us not to make this list longer, but it’s based on our Likes over the past year so it’s as scientific as it gets! All of the Tumblrs listed have gone above and beyond in terms of interesting content, fantastic GIFs and very many laughs.

So many great arts & culture Tumblrs to follow! ❤️
