When parade routes and associated activities affect access to and from the William F. Winter Archives and History Building, it may be necessary to close the building and reading rooms on the respective day.
Events may include, but are not limited to, the following:
A. Dixie National Rodeo Parade | February |
B. St. Paddys Day Parade | March |
C. Medgar Evers Homecoming Parade | June |
D. Jackson State University Homecoming Parade | October or November |
E. Jackson Christmas Parade | early December |
At least one month before the parade, after Reference Services staff verify the date and time of the parade and upon the recommendation of the director of the Archives and Records Services Division, the Director of the Department will issue a memo regarding closure. Upon notification of closing, Reference Services and Public Information staffs will prepare appropriate signage, telephone messages, and information for the Web site; and the building Director of Operations will notify Capitol Police and others who may be planning to use the Winter Building on that day.
