New American history treasure trove!

If you are looking for primary sources for American history, be sure to look in Accessible Archives, a new online research database now available through the BU Library. Accessible Archives contains eyewitness accounts of historical events, vivid descriptions of daily life, editorial observations, commerce as seen through advertisements, and genealogical record, all available full-text. For more information on the collections contained in Accessible Archives, visit this page.

Access the database via the Library's Databases A-Z page, the Databases by Subject page, or via selected Research Guides. As always, if you have questions or would like research assistance, Ask a Librarian.
