Housed within the newly expanded Museum’s east end offices, the Ted M. Natt Maritime Library is now open for researchers. The beautiful new library allows researchers better use of its constantly growing collection of historical resources pertaining to the maritime history of the Columbia River and the Pacific Northwest. Considered one of the best repositories in the country for Pacific Northwest maritime material, the Library has been vital to the Museum’s mission of education, and serves scholars from all over the United States and abroad.

This non-circulating reference collection is available for scholarly use, by appointment only, to insure availability of staff and materials. Please call, email or fax the curatorial staff at least one week in advance to schedule an appointment. When we receive your request, we will call you within a few days to let you know what types of materials we have to offer and our best suggestions for how to pursue your research.
