Many of our research collections and university records are stored offsite. We recommend booking an appointment so we can prepare your request and bring the material to the Reading Room.
Appointments are available Monday to Friday:
- 10:00 am to 1:00 pm
- 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm
After receiving your appointment confirmation please send an email to libarch@wlu.ca outlining your research interest and indicating the archival material you wish to access. Staff will ensure that relevant materials are available to you during your appointment.
The Laurier Archives and Special Collections Reading Room is located on the first floor of the Laurier Library.
