As the official repository of state government records,  the Archives houses a unique collection of original documents; it also holds a large microfilm collection of both federal government and British government records.

 

     The Reference Services Branch operates the Research Room and answers mail, telephone and e-mail queries. Staff will answer questions about the records and provide specific information from them if the amount of research time is reasonable. Staff will also check specified indexes for a specific name and fill a photocopy order for records in which the name appears. Staff cannot undertake extensive research or analyze records for questions of judgment; they can, however, recommend sources for further research.
