The Virtual Reading Room (VRR) is a free, one-hour online session that allows remote researchers to view materials from the Huntington Library's rare collections.
Researchers meet one-on-one with a Reader Services staff member, who shares the materials through a high-resolution document camera. Appointments take place online in a Microsoft Teams video meeting.
For more information and to schedule an appointment, please visit our Virtual Reading Room Calendar.
