Hours & Announcements

Stratford-Perth Archives Reading Room is open for research 
Tuesday to Friday from 10AM until 3PM
and Saturdays by appointment

During Reading Room hours, we welcome drop-in visitors. We encourage you to come in and discuss your research with staff, or set up future appointments. You will likely be able to access microfilm and local history books but you will not have access to original records stored in the Collections Room without an appointment. Researchers who have booked an appointment will have priority use of microfilm readers and tables.

All appointments should be made at least one week in advance.

When booking your appointment, staff will conduct a detailed reference interview with you, via phone or email, to identify records relevant to your research. The requested materials will be pulled prior to your visit and will be waiting when you arrive.

All researchers are encouraged to contact Archives staff via email or telephone to discuss their research goals and/or to set up an appointment. Archives staff can be reached at (519) 271-0531 ext. 259 or by clicking on the email link below.

If you would like to discuss a possible donation, please contact the Archivist by calling (519) 271-0531 ext. 259 or  by clicking on the email link below to set up a meeting.
