The Archives and Rare Books Library is open to the University community and the public Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. except for University holidays. Appointments are required for research visits. Please email archives@ucmail.uc.edu to make a research appointment. Some of our material is stored in an offsite facility and can take from three days to one week to be made available.
All researchers will be asked to sign our guest registry and provide a photo ID at the time of each visit.
Photocopies can be made for 25 cents per page. Most rare books and some collections cannot be photocopied due to possible damage to the material, but it might be possible to take non-flash photographs.
