The Library & Archives is open to the public Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday 1pm-5pm, and Wednesday 1-8pm. Access to Archives and Special Collections requires an appointment. We are closed annually the two weeks before Labour Day for collections maintenance.
All Archives and Special Collections researchers need to register, which involves supplying your contact information and agreeing to abide by the reading room rules.
The AGO is wheelchair accessible. Street-level access to the AGO is available through our Group Entrance, open during all public hours. Wheelchairs and walkers are available to visitors on a first-come first-served basis or may be reserved in advance of your visit.
The door to the Research Library & Archives is not wheelchair accessible, but staff are available to assist.
Researchers are welcome to use their own digital devices to make reproductions for research and private study use only. Publication-quality images may be requested through the AGO's Image Resources department.
Our reading room is equipped with Wifi and electrical outlets at each table. Two computer workstations are available for use in the general reference area.
