Paging
Retrievals should be scheduled in advance in your Aeon account by selecting the date of your visit. We encourage you to submit requests at least 48 hours in advance, as not all material is immediately available. You may have 20 active requests at one time and save an unlimited number of requests for later. Once retrieved, materials will be held for 48 hours.
Requests submitted before noon, Monday through Friday, are usually available after 10 am the next business day. Requests submitted after noon, Monday through Friday, or over the weekend, are usually available in two business days.
You may check your Aeon account to find out when material is available (status will display as “Item Ready for Use”).
Off-Site Collections
Some of the archives' collections are stored off-site. Users are encouraged to submit all requests at least two days in advance, as not all material is immediately available.
