Welcome to ANRL. The American Nudist Research Library ® was
established in 1979 to preserve the history of the social nudist movement in
North America and throughout the world. It is a repository of material rather
than a circulating library. Visitors may read or view most of the collection as
long as they are in the Library. The Library is enjoyed most by individuals and
groups who treasure on-going nudist activities, and who wish to participate in
a sincere effort to preserve the unique history of the movement.
The ANRL is located on the grounds of
Cypress Cove Nudist Resort
in Kissimmee, Florida, next to the the tropically landscaped pool area. The setting provides
the visitor a vivid memory of our identity with sunlight, fresh air, relaxation
and a oneness with nature. The Library is currently open Thursday through Saturday,
except holidays, from 1 PM to 4 PM. Visiting researchers, scholars and students of nudist
history are welcome to contact the Library by phone, e-mail info@anrl.org or mail to arrange a
convenient visiting time which could be any time someone from the Library staff is
available. The Library is a clothing optional facility; however,
to maintain the integrity of our aging documentation, it is air conditioned to
a temperature in the mid to lower 70’s F.
The ANRL is a non-profit organization operated entirely by volunteers. It
operates independently of any other organization and is supported by
memberships, special offers
of selected duplicate items in the collection, cash
donations and contributions
of materials. Donations are tax-deductible.
