For pottery collections you might want to check out the Museum of
Anthropology Koerner Gallery:
http://www.moa.ubc.ca/Exhibitions/Permanent/koerner/koernerview.html

Dr. Carol Mayer, the curator, has published a book about the
collection (and other books on the subject) that might suit your
research. The title of the Koerner collection book is The Potter's
Art and it shows up in the World Catalogue as available from:
UNIV OF N CAROLINA, CHAPEL HILL
UNIV OF N CAROLINA, CHARLOTTE

Good luck with your research!

ps.. WorldCat shows Nigerian Pottery at only 8 libraries of which a
couple are in the US.
