Using the Archives Center collections:
The Archives Center has moved to temporary quarters in the National Museum of American History and the off-site location in Suitland, Maryland, during the renovation of the Museum's west wing. Reference services have changed significantly in order to accommodate access to the collections off-site and in the Museum. For details on conducting research during this period, visit the Archives Center's website.
