How to Visit
The reading room is open for walk-in research however, an appointment is highly encouraged. For walk-in researchers, it will typically be a 30-minute wait time for materials to be pulled but with an appointment, your materials can be ready upon your arrival! To make an appointment, and cut down on your wait time, please follow the steps below. We can't wait to research with you!
