- General Research Help
Researchers at the Library are our priority, but if you are off-site and need help, we will be happy to:
- Answer questions of a general nature or about things for which we may readily find the answer.
- Refer you to an independent researcher or genealogist experienced using Quaker resources.
- Create and provide low or high resolution images of our materials. (See more details on off-site requests for copies and scans, below.)
Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to do research for off-site patrons
