The Huntington Historical Society Resource Center and Archives
The purpose of the Huntington Historical Society's Resource Center and Archives is to discover, collect, preserve, and make available for research books, pamphlets, broadsides, newspapers, periodicals, photographs, maps, atlases, manuscripts, audio-visual and other materials relevant to Huntington history. The society also collects material on those aspects of American, Northeast, New York, and Long Island history which have substantially involved or affected Huntington. In addition, the Resource center and Archives collects reference material which supports the objectives and programs of the Society and its museum.
The Archive is housed in the Trade School Building, which was expanded in 2016 to accommodate the growing collection.
