The Archives’ volunteer program has been essential to the daily work of the Department of Archives and History for decades. Every week, our dedicated volunteers greet visitors, transcribe documents, lead school tours, help process and care for collections, and provide support to Archives staff. If you love history, enjoy people, and want to experience what happens behind-the-scenes in an archives and museum, apply to be a volunteer!
