Since the renovation of the Rijksmuseum building complex, which started in 2003, the library is no longer housed in the main building, designed by the architect P.J.H. Cuypers.

The library is currently housed in the Frans van Mierisstraat 92 in Amsterdam, and is open from Tuesday till Saturday, from 10:00 till 17:00, with limited service between 13:00 and 14:00.
