We welcome research teams at the Schlesinger Library. If you are interested in bringing a research partner into the Reading Room with you during your visit, please explore the Research Team Guide. If you are planning to send a research assistant to the library on your behalf, please explore the Proxy Research Guide.

If you have any questions at any point in the process, please contact us.

Please Note

Curious about how to place requests for materials? Consult the Schlesinger Library's guide to requesting materials for detailed instructions and how-to videos.

If you are working on a long-term project (ex. semester- or academic year-long projects) with a research team or if your team will be visiting on various dates to access material held communally for the group, please contact us to review additional requirements for setting up your visit.

• If you would like to request a research consultation with a Schlesinger Research Librarian for assistance locating relevant material within Schlesinger collections, please submit a request using the Research Support form.
• If you do not need research assistance, please contact us to schedule an orientation session for your research team on using the Reading Room as a team.
