ABOUT THE NSLM Founded in 1954, the National Sporting Library & Museum (NSLM) is located in Middleburg, the heart of Virginia’s beautiful hunt country. The inviting 6-acre campus, worldclass research Library, and fine art Museum, highlight the rich heritage and tradition of country pursuits while advocating for the conservation of landscape, open space, and waterways integral to these activities. Angling, wingshooting, horsemanship, shooting, steeplechasing, foxhunting, flat racing, polo, coaching, and wildlife are among the subjects one can explore in the institution’s general stacks, rare book holdings, archives, and art collection. The NSLM offers a wide variety of educational programs, exhibitions, and family activities throughout the year.

Mission Dedicated to preserving, promoting, and sharing the literature, art, and culture of equestrian, angling and field sports. Committed to education and advocacy for the conservation of open space and waterways integral to these pursuits.
