Court Record Research Volunteers
Description: The Maryland State Archives Reference Department is seeking volunteers to help conduct research in court record collections. Professional archivists will train volunteers to assist in searching for case numbers and locating case files using both hard copy and online court record indexes. This is a great opportunity to learn how to use our resources, particularly our more modern court record collections. Volunteer work must be completed on site in Annapolis. Supervisory staff will offer flexible scheduling for all those who wish to assist. The building is open Monday - Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. We ask that the volunteer make themselves available at least one day a week, for a minimum four-hour shift. We are willing to work directly with the candidate to accommodate individual schedules. Please contact us!
