Due to limited staffing, the museum archive is open to students, faculty, staff, and the public by appointment only. Individuals looking to conduct research should contact the museum to make an appointment at least five business days in advance. Prior notice is required to ensure that the desired materials can be retrieved and made available upon arrival. Artifacts and materials within the museum and its archive are non-circulating. As a result, supervised access is required when handling collections for research purposes.
