  • Materials requested between 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM:
    Available the same day at approximately 3:00 PM.
     
  • Materials requested between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM:
    Available the next business day at approximately 10:00 AM.

The staff will retrieve materials from our onsite locations at approximately 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM. Materials will be available one half hour later. As time and staff levels permit, we may be able to accommodate requests for on-site materials at other times as well.
