Wyoming, ON – Lambton County Archives has shifted its service offerings during the COVID-19 pandemic to adapt and continue to provide researchers and genealogists access to its extensive collection of archival documents that share the stories of the people and places of Lambton County. To further provide an avenue for access, the Archives is now offering virtual appointments to the public.
Lambton County Archives remains closed in response to provincial orders, however serving the community remains a top priority. “This virtual service will safely increase access to the collections for patrons to resume researching with our archival resources,” said Nicole Aszalos, Archivist/Supervisor of Lambton County Archives. “In the past, visitors were required to visit the Archives in-person to conduct research. Virtual appointments allow members of the public to interact with our staff and access archival resources in a safe, remote manner.”
Virtual appointments are booked in advance with the Archivist and will include two 15-minute video or telephone meetings and one hour of research time. As part of the appointment, the Archivist will assist by reviewing research and answering questions to help facilitate the process. If requested, this service can also include an introduction to the various genealogical and local history resources available online, like AncestryLibrary and Onland, among other programs.
Virtual appointments are $20 for members and $30 for non-members and include a total of 1.5 hours of research support. Additional research time can be purchased as needed.
To learn more about virtual appointments and to make a reservation, visit the Lambton County Archives website.
