If you are unfamiliar with the facility and collections, please let us know and we will be happy to give you a brief introduction to our collections, finding aids, and services. Patrons are required to register daily at the Reference Desk. Coat racks and free lockers are located to your left as you enter the Reference Room. No briefcases, packages, purses, or fanny packs may be taken into the room. Patrons must use only pencil when taking notes.
Pencils are available at the desk and on the tables.
No food or drink is allowed in the room. Most of the library and archives collections are stored in secure stacks which are closed to the public. These collections are cataloged and can be located by using the card catalogs and finding aids noted on the map . Collections and books can be requested by filling out Call Slips which are located next to the various card catalogs. Generally materials requested are retrieved within a very short period of time.
