Special Research Hours & "Public Health in Florida" Presentation

We are extending our State Library and Archives Reference Room Saturday Series through 2019!

On the 2nd Saturday of each month from January through August, the reference room will be open to the public from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

We hope this gives our patrons who are unable to visit the State Library and Archives during the week a chance to catch up on their research. Dates are as follows: January 12, February 9, March 9, April 13, May 11, June 8, July 13 and August 10.

Additionally, on January 12 at 1:00 p.m., Archivist Bella Folmar and Librarian Blake Robinson will present a historical discussion on “Public Health in Florida.” The presentation will be followed by a tour highlighting the public health materials available in our collections. We hope you enjoy this exciting opportunity during our extended research hours.
