Schedule a Research Appointment
In-person research is available by appointment Tuesday through Friday between 9am and 4pm. Researchers are welcome to arrive and leave any time between those hours.
Eight appointment spots are available per day. Please schedule a separate appointment for each individual accompanying you. Appointments can be scheduled up to four months (120 days) in advance. Same day appointments are available up to two hours before appointment time (6:59 a.m.). If you would like to make a same day appointment, please call the reference desk at 215-627-1852 to check availability. Scheduled closures for holidays and staff in-service days are listed on the Plan Your Visit page.
