Please include the following information with your question: 

  • Your name.
  • A telephone number, fax, address, or e-mail address to respond to your question. 
  • Be specific! Give as many details to your questions as you can.  It often helps if we know what you need the information for.  If this is for a school project please include what the class is and your grade level.
Please read our guidelines: 
  • Please allow several working days for a response to your question.  The more complex your question, the longer it will take for us to respond. 
  • The library does reserve the right to charge for copies.  ($0.25 per microfilm copy, $0.15 per xerox copy, and $0.10 per computer copy.)
If you have any questions, please call the reference desk: (302)-571-7416.
