We have numerous resources available for researchers, including a research library, vertical subject files and genealogical surname files, and an online searchable database of our collections. We also have volunteer staff that generously assists genealogists with some of their research.

If you are unable to conduct research at Brookside personally, research can be done for you. Also, copies of subject and surname files can be mailed to you for a fee. Click for research request forms and surname request forms.

In addition to resources at Brookside, we also work closely with the local historians and other repositories in the area.
