Education and outreach programs at the Museum include internships, teacher workshops and seminars, summer and after-school arts programs for young people, a lecture series and development of a specialized school curriculum.
The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Research Center opened in July 2001. It provides stipends to scholars to pursue projects relevant to the study of American Modernism and to the art and life of Georgia O'Keeffe. Areas of study include art and architectural history, literature, music and photography.

Google announced in 2004 a collaboration with institutional libraries, such as the University Of Michigan Library, to digitize large quantities of books: the Google Books Library Project. Public domain books are made available to the public on an open access basis. Copyrighted material is treated in one of three ways. Google negotiates with cooperating publishers through its Google Books Partner Program for "full view" or "limited preview" of entire books, pages or sections within books. For scanned books without copyright permissions, "snippets" may be made available to the public. For remaining books basic information is provided without ability to search within the book. Snippets inform readers about the relevance of the book to their subject of inquiry. A Google Book Search conducted June 19, 2008 located the following books indicated as having been published by the Museum and do not feature Google Books "full view," "limited preview" or "snippit view."
