Numismatic Research Services
Education, information and research are critical to the full enjoyment of numismatics. The ANA Library staff happily helps members find answers to their numismatic questions.
Research
For basic requests and questions, the library staff will provide answers at no charge.
For in-depth research requests (which typically involve multiple sources), the library staff can provide information on numismatic subjects.
The research fee is $50 per hour (minimum one-hour) plus any photocopy or digital scanning charges. Library staff can provide an estimate of the time needed to complete a project or patrons may specify a maximum monetary amount.
