If you must cancel your spot, please let us know as soon as possible so we may designate your spot to someone on the waiting list.

Community Research Days are meant to provide broad physical access to the Research Archives regardless of an individual’s ability to pay. A three-hour research period would normally cost $270. These sessions are available for a suggested $20 donation, which helps ensure the sustainability of the History Center to preserve the collections.
