Come see us!

After the October 2022 arson fire next door and months of real estate searches, we are organizing our new space at 2102 East Main Ave., Suite 105 in Puyallup WA. The books have been cleaned since the fire and we want family researchers to come check out our new brick and mortar space once we have computers set up. Maybe you would like to volunteeer with us - everyone is welcome.

We are getting very close to securing space for our library collection - stay tuned!

If you are an HQRL member, you can read the latest updates in the Board minutes, and Management Team minutes, that are posted in our members only access portion of the website. You will read about the many site visits to try to rent space, what some of the pitfalls have been and progress for our organization. There are many people working to get us back on our feet with a brick and mortar space. {Donations are always welcome too.}

It's been eleven months since the downtown Sumner fire that transformed HQRL from its storefront to a virtual organization. Since then we have been very active with real estate agents trying to locate a space suitable for our 16,000 book collection, tall shelving and computers. We left the 2400 square foot facility with the contents getting cleaned and going into storage. Now we need to fit into space that we can afford. Do you know of anything that is ADA compliant, seismic suitable, and costs $2/sq. ft? Please give us a call at 253-863-1806.

We also will gladly accept donations at hqrl.com - see DONATE button.  thank you.

We are still looking for a new space for the library. The search committee has been doing some research into spaces that have been recommended. The rental rates are still above our budget so far...  let us know if you come across something we should investigate.

We are working to find a new brick and mortar space and with your donations we can secure a long term lease. Click here.
