The Minnesota Historical Society accepts only a small proportion of materials offered due to the breadth of our current holdings. Space constraints and our commitment to sustainable stewardship and best practices play a central role in our collecting criteria.

Usually we can respond within four to six weeks; some offers may take longer to review. Thank you for thinking of us!
