The North Haven Historical Society Archives Center welcomes the use of its collections by historians, writers, educators, students, genealogists and others interested in the history of the Penobscot Bay area and North Haven in particular. Many one-of-a-kind materials about the island's history and its people are available at our Archives Center. The Society works to collect and preserve these collections and we have instituted policies and procedures below to protect our holdings for the future.
Access
The Archives Center is open to all free of charge. The Library is open for your browsing or research. Materials from the archival storage vault must always be retrieved by staff. Fragile materials, including original photographs, maps, documents and newspapers may be restricted at the discretion of the staff. Archival and manuscript materials may not be photocopied, scanned, or photographed without permission. Scanning and photocopying will be handled by the staff.
Archives Center Policies
We ask that you work quietly and cooperatively with those around you. Please leave your cell phone in the lobby or set it to silent mode if you bring it into the library. Cell phone conversations should take place in the lobby. Please ask permission before photographing materials. Free wireless connection is available upon request.
Collection Policies
Our collections do not circulate and no materials may leave the building. We discourage accepting any materials "on loan."
Photocopies, Photography and Scans
