In addition to exhibits and public programs, Brookside offers a research library for genealogy and local history. The research library can be visited during regular museum hours or by appointment.
General admission is charged for use of the library.
Request for use of secured archives, photographs, and objects must be by appointment. Please understand this is due to the time required by our small professional staff in preparing the objects for study. Students working on their thesis or dissertation may request that this fee be waived upon their first use of the collection. A growing number of images of items are being added weekly.
