Before you submit a question:
  • Do you have a suggestion for a book, DVD or other media that we should add to our collection?  Sign into your library account and click the 'Suggest a Title' link above the search bar to suggest an addition. Suggestions there are reviewed and acted upon weekly.
  • Are you looking for a local obituary, an old photograph or other local research information?  Contact the The People's Archive at peoples.archive@dc.gov. Requests are usually addressed in five to seven business days.
  • Would you like to give feedback to help improve library services and facilities? Take a brief survey.
  • Have another question?  Contact your neighborhood library or check our Frequently Asked Questions first.
