Archives Location and Hours of Opening

For more than 25 years the BHS Archives has been housed in Burlington's Central Public Library, where the Burlington History Room , located on the second floor, provides a protective and secure environment. 

The locked room holds two distinct collections: The BHS Archives, operated by BHS volunteers; and the BPL historical collections. Library materials are accessible, with the help of librarians, during the library's open hours..

When a BHS Volunteer is in the History Room, please drop in for

  • a tour of the archives and an introduction to the BHS collection
  • brief enquiries
  • to discuss donation of papers or photographs
