Archival & Historical Primary Sources
The William Ready Division of Archives and Research Collections are also pleased to provide research consultations to students in the humanities and social sciences who are interested in historical primary source or archival research. This can pertain either to our holdings specifically or to more general strategies and techniques for locating and making use of historical primary source material.
Consultations typically last from 45 minutes to an hour and must be booked at least two weeks in advance. To book a research consultation or inquire about teaching options, please email us.
