Researchers are urged to come to the NPA to do their own work. Fees also are charged for special mailing requests. Upon request, the NPA can provide services including workshops, photo exhibits, consultations for special programs to commemorate historical events as well as guidance on archival practices and procedures. Student intern programs are available. The NPA is housed with the Demonstration Project for Asian Americans in the Immaculate Community Center, formerly the Immaculate School, in Seattle's Central Area.
Interim hours vary.
Weekend hours are optional or by appointment. Off-street parking is available in The Immaculate Parish yard behind the Community Center with entrances on either E. Columbia St. or Marion St. from 18th Ave. The NPA requires no user's fee. Money gifts are encouraged and appreciated in order to permit purchases, not otherwise possible, of archival materials, equipment and supplies, including Filipino American publications, valuable to researchers and students.
