I'm visiting and would like to see specific objects in the Museum's collection--how do I arrange this?

The Museum is glad to assist researchers, historians, authors, and genealogists in their pursuit of furthering knowledge and public awareness. Please submit a request via email at least two weeks ahead of time to schedule time in our Research Room, including purpose of research and potential outcome of research. If the research is for a publication, we would greatly appreciate receiving a copy afterwards to add to our research database. Please note that due to staffing and safety/liability constraints, some artifacts may be off-limits. At this time, we cannot accommodate visitors wishing to see artifacts that were removed from past exhibits, nor can we allow visitors into any space other than the open exhibit galleries and the Research Room.
