Biographical History
Librarian.
Founded in 1884 by a group of seven New York City Book collectors, the Grolier Club has employed librarians for over a century, and in the last few decades they have also assumed the duties of director. Robert Nikirk had a background in art historical studies and employment in a book auction house when he was appointed librarian in the spring of 1970. In addition to his work as librarian, Nikirk accepted some invitations from bibliophile groups, university libraries and the organizers of conferences to speak on subjects such as book auctions, the nature of rare books and collecting, and American bookbindings. He died in September 1990.
