Annual winter closure

Each year we close to the public during December and January. This allows us to give some of our volunteers a break and catch up on things like inventory, processing memberships and tax donation receipts.  

Any research requests received during this period will be held in queue pending the availability of a research volunteer.

See you in February! Watch for details to come regarding our participation in Flashback February!
