Resources include map and photograph collections, architectural records, manuscript collections, family papers, business and organizational records, oral histories, dozens of serials titles, and an extensive book and pamphlets collection. The Center does not hold Federal population censuses nor naturalization records. The collections are described in published guides, in a card catalog, and other descriptive finding aids. Staff can assist you in determining if there are resources pertinent to your interest or research. Photocopies can be made by staff, if the original item will not be damaged.
Copies cost ten cents a side.
Most photographs can be reproduced. If you have specific questions about particular subjects or collections, please feel free to contact staff directly. Collections have explanatory descriptions and many have inventories or box lists that can be copied for your use. If you are interested in donating records to the Center please contact the staff noted below. We are happy to consider donations at any time.
