Planning Your Visit

From middle schoolers working on Social Studies projects, to PhD candidates completing their dissertations, the goal of the Cahlan Research Library is to help the public discover the history of Nevada and Southern Nevada. We realize that your time is important, and that's why we ask that you plan your visit.

Friday, Saturday, Monday
1:00 pm to 530 pm 
or by appointment

If you are pressed for time, please call ahead to make sure that the library will be open. Although the library is normally open on Friday, Saturday, and Monday, it is possible that the library will be closed due to staffing shortages or special events. We recommend that all out-of-town visitors schedule a library appointment so that we can make sure you will get the help that you need.

It is always free to use the Cahlan Research Library. If you encounter any difficulties while attempting to visit the library, please call the Nevada State Museum information desk at 702-486-5205. Please note that the Cahlan Research Library is not the library that is located in the Springs Preserve Store.

The best way to visit the Cahlan Research Library is by parking in the upper lot of the Springs Preserve. You can also visit the library by going through Springs Preserve main ticketing and explaining that you are visiting the library.
