AM Primary Sources: Home

Adam Matthew Products

Adam Matthew is an academic publisher of primary source material.  The digital collections found here are presented in a similar fashion, allowing you to search for items based on keywords but also providing several options for browsing.  Browsing can help you develop a topic.  Additionally, if you find a subset of the collection that has material relevant to your topic, you can restrict your search to a particular module, theme, or archival collection.  When given the option, you may want to limit your search by region, as there is a great deal of material from both the UK and the United States. Overall, this is a good option for gaining familiarity with digitized archival material. 
  • You can cross-search all of their digital collections through AM Explorer

Using This Guide

This guide provides a full list of Adam Matthew (AM) products available to students, faculty, and staff of UNC-CH.  The University Libraries has assigned subject areas to these databases based on academic departments within UNC-CH.  As most research is interdisciplinary in nature, I encourage you to browse the full list, or at least several different subjects, to gain better insight into what materials are available for your research.  

Additionally, be aware of the subheadings under History (General) and East Asian Studies.  The subsets contain more subject-specific databases not found under the general heading.
