We have an extensive historical library which is open to the public and
well used.
The library is used by professionals in research and by the general
public, especially people working on family geneologies.  Call Cincinnati
Museum Center at (513) 287-7000 and ask for the historical library if you
would like more information.  They may also be able to lead you to
institutions which are a better fit  to your research topic.
