I’ve seen the  Ask Us service offered by the State Library before but I hadn’t really read and understood what they were offering.  A great service for country genealogists or those who aren’t able to get to the library.

The AskUs service enables you to submit questions to our librarians who will attempt to provide you with helpful information. The basic research service is free although there are charges for copying.

 Questions can be asked via phone or via a form on their website.  The service can be used up to four times in a year.  What they provide

Up to 1 hour of research on most enquiries. We may spend more time on enquiries which require researching materials unique to our Library.

Response time for inquiries is up to 7 – 10 working days.
