Research requests will only be performed if time permits. Researchers are able to come in and do research themselves, by APPOINTMENT ONLY, at no charge, however, costs pertaining to copying/using photographs and photocopying still apply. Any person requiring information to be sent to them through the mail will absorb all costs associated with this function. No original materials will be permitted to leave the museum under any circumstance.

Though we do assess our ability to research and find information regarding requests before we proceed, no guarantee can be made that satisfactory material will be found. In the event that this happens, you will still be required to pay for any time that staff spends researching on your behalf. Any broad or unclear research questions will not be answered. When making your request, please be very specific in what you are looking for. This will increase the chances of finding pertinent material and decrease the time and cost for all involved.

All research requests will be documented. A Research Request form will be required in order for museum staff to begin work for an individual. Museum staff can arrange to have this form sent out via email or regular post. Please be sure to fill out this form in its entirety. Upon completion of each research request, a bill will be sent outlining all tasks performed and total costs associated with the research request. Shipping costs will also be included on this bill should you require this service. No information or photographs will be released until payment is made in full to the museum. Payment can be made by cash, cheque, money order or credit card. Please note that if you are paying by personal cheque or credit card, payment must clear before any information or photographs will be released. A $25 NSF fee will be applied to any personal cheques that bounce. This fee is subject to change without notice as the museum itself is not the organization that sets this fee.

No tasks will be completed without the consent of the individual requesting the information. This will erase the possibility for argument over costs incurred during the completion of a research request. No documents will be photocopied and no photographs will be reproduced without consent from the requester. Should you have any questions, please contact the Museologist at 613-687-5511 ext 6034 or the Collections Manager at 613-588-6238.
