==Location==
The physical location of the Library is at Unit 955, ExtraSpace Storage, 13125 S John Young Pkwy, Orlando, FL 32837, United States. The stacks with cataloged books are in Unit 986. Uncataloged material is in Unit 961. Some materials in process are at [[Headquarters]], but plans are to relocate this material as time permits
==Accessions==
:# Robert Cleve, former Chairman of the Society, has willed his collection on Roman History to the Society. As he is no longer a member, this may be some challenge to receive.
:# Marta Metcalf, FAS, may offer her genealogical collection as a long-term loan as long as the Library is open to the public, the loan converting to a gift if the Library is still in operation at her death. This will likely be delayed until all other genealogical material has been cataloged.
 
 
==[[Collection Development Grant]]==
 
A grant has been received from an anonymous member to supplement the accessions budget under certain circumstances. This will require some small amount of accounting, most of which will be undertaken by the Library, in consultation with the [[Assistant Treasurer]].
 
Books received through this grant will be cataloged and otherwise treated as usual, with no special marking or catalog notation required.
