Do not bring liquids or foods into the archives reading room. We have appropriate gloves or ask that your hands are clean and dry before handling materials removed from their protective containers. You must store all possessions in the provided locker other than a laptop computer, paper and pencil. If you expect to scan or copy materials, consult with staff before your visit for download and print options or use of a cell phone or camera as some materials are restricted.

The Archives Research Room and collections are found in Kellogg 1006, around the corner from the CSUSM Writing Center.
