Is there a fee for family history/genealogy research?
Burlington County Library’s fees for research are as follows: 1) If you are looking for a newspaper notice of a specific event, i.e. a birth, marriage, or obituary/death notice, and you know the date, the BCL charge is $5.00 for the search PER NOTICE plus $.25 per photocopied page (e.g., 2 obituaries = 2 notices = $10.50). Pre-payment is required and the fee includes postage. Please allow 15 working days. Mail your written request with the appropriate fee to: Reference Department, Burlington County Library, 5 Pioneer Blvd., Westampton, NJ 08060. 2) If you are looking for family history, genealogy, or biographical information on a Burlington County family, we will search a specific list of resources which are available in our New Jersey Room Collection for a pre-paid research fee of $15.00 plus $.25 per photocopy.
