Have questions about your research?
We can help!

All Library buildings are closed until further notice. During this closure, Library Special Collections staff are working remotely and all collections are unavailable for research. We are providing limited remote reference services but are unable to perform onsite research-by-proxy at this time. Additionally, Library Special Collections is prioritizing remote reference services, digitization and reproduction services, and instruction support requests from UCLA affiliates. We look forward to assisting you with your research query in the future.

  • To request reference support for LSC materials in YRL, please email spec-coll@library.ucla.edu
  • To request instruction support using LSC materials in YRL, please email our Teaching & Learning Librarian, Jimmy Zavala: zavalaj@library.ucla.edu
  • To request digitization of LSC materials in YRL in support of instruction, please email speccoll-duplication@library.ucla.edu

We are actively monitoring the situation and will update our homepage with changes and updates to our hours or services.
