Located in the Parks Research Center, the Library and Archives (LAA) is open by appointment only, Monday–Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. We are closed on weekends, for major holidays, and the last week of December. 

Please fill out the Researcher Application Form to request a research appointment. We recommend appointments be made 4-6 weeks in advance for library and archives materials, 12 weeks in advance for access all other materials.

Please note: Due to ongoing, intensive collections care activities, there is currently a moratorium on loans of and access to archaeological collections and field notes. Those collections undergoing curatorial remediation, tribal review, and rehabilitation will be inaccessible to researchers until the processes are complete.
