Art lovers will find Scottsdale museums such as the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Hoo-hoogam Ki Museum are ‘must-see’ locations. The Museum of Contemporary Art showcases modern art and architecture, while the Hoo-hoogam Ki Museum features artifacts from the local Salt River Pima-Maricopa Native American community.

One of Scottsdale's many libraries is the Mustang Library, located on North 90th Street. Like many of the other Scottsdale libraries, this one is named after a horse. If you're visiting Scottsdale, it's good to know that you can use the libraries as your local internet café.
