Requests

To make a request for repository, and to receive the fillable Word document repository request form, fill out the form request at the bottom of this page. Our Collections Registrar will then send you the fillable PDF. We ask that the PDF be submitted to and signed by our Collections Registrar before you list Sncewips on your permit.

Sncewips Heritage Museum welcomes legitimate researchers to consult our museum collections; objects, archaeological repository, archives, and library during regular operating hours (subject to reasonable restrictions based on sensitivity, security, and confidentiality). Alternatively, Sncewips’ Collections Registrar can conduct archival, library, artifactual, archaeological, and ethnographic research on behalf of the researcher. Sncewips Heritage Museum does not charge any fees for research conducted on the collections, but encourages donation.

Please note that researcher access to the collections is available by appointment only. Appointments must be made in advance with the Collections Registrar, and will be supervised by the Collection Registrar. At least two weeks advance notice is required, except under special circumstances since appointments are scheduled as staff time allows. A completed research request form must be submitted to and approved by the Collections Registrar before research or consultation can take place.

Research interests and intentions must be stated during the appointment scheduling. Access to some materials may be restricted due to the item’s condition or other circumstances defined by staff.
