| Accessing the Collections | |
Research in the Archives Beginning January 1st 2013, Opus will be open Monday through Wednesday. How to Prepare for and Conduct Research at Opus To access materials for a scholars visit we need time to prepare and do our research so you can do yours! The archival collections are not accessible like a library, so a research visit requires planning. The best way to proceed with doing research in our collections is to begin with what you want to look at - identifying titles of books or essays as the collections are generally organized this way, i.e. Re-Visioning Psychology research notes & drafts, or essays. Some collections offer more thematic organization of material, and you can get a sense of that by looking at the individual collection pages, located in the 'explore the collections' menu above. To acquaint yourself with what the scholars have published that touches on your interest is the first place to start and then we prepare to access those original materials for your research visit. Archival research really beings after exploring the published material, looking in indexes, and then finding all the pieces that went along with creating that finished piece in the archives. We have a lot of information on our website as to what each collection holds and this will help you begin to identify what is of interest to you. Once you begin to get a sense of this please email us and we will begin designing your research visit. An appointment to visit the archives or the library collections may be made through our staff at (805) 969-5750 or info@opusarchives.org Certain parts of the collections in the archives are available for review without visiting the Center as they can be photocopied and shipped.
