General Guidelines

When making requests of volunteers:

• Make requests specific -- avoid being too general.
• Make requests ONLY for the volunteer's specified research areas. (Do not ask for out-of-area requests.)
• Never ask more than one volunteer for the same request.
• Ask the volunteer what reimbursements they require: copies, gas, parking, etc.
• Negotiate an estimated completion time ... Remember: volunteers are not "on the clock," may research for multiple people, and respond reasonably as their time permits.

Note: If no volunteer exists for an area, Follow the page for alerts of page changes. (Requires a wiki account.) Create a wiki account here.

• check back again. (New volunteers sign up daily.)
• join the FB RAOGK groups -- RAOGK USA and/or RAOGK International and post your research request. (One of the group members may live in that area and be willing to help.)
