The Arizona State University Library, Special Collections, Carl Hayden Archives and the Hayden Arizona Pioneer Biographical Index is a good place to look for early Arizona families.[3] The Luhrs Reading Room has indexes, guides, databases, and personal reference assistance for researchers.[2] The Arizona Collection includes 8,000 feet of manuscripts; oral histories; 30,000 books; and 500,000 photos.[4] Special Collections houses rare books, manuscripts, and special interest collections such as the Laos Research Collection.[5]
