The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea states in its art materials use guide that materials at MMCA Cheongju can be read without a reservation. This is an exception to the general requirement to book and secure approval three days before visiting other research facilities. Visitors may consult up to 20 items per day. Digital materials must be viewed on dedicated computers; photography and recording are prohibited. Special materials may require separate enquiries. Cheongju Larchiveum offers access to art books and archives, but these reading rules do not replace exhibition ticket or admission policies. Recheck opening days and the availability of specific collections before traveling.
