Directory

The
Manuscripts, Archives
and Special Collections
Directory is a guide and
locator of collections
residing in
Massachusetts libraries,
archives, historical
societies and town
clerk's offices. This
directory provides
access in one location
to the holdings in more
than 650 repositories in
the Commonwealth. Often
such holdings are not
fully cataloged or known
outside the library yet
are of great potential
research value. The
holdings are available
by town/location,
institution, repository,
collection description,
special collection and
through name and/or
subject searches. In
addition, the directory
provides information
about the institution,
contacts, services
available and volume of
material, as well as
directions to the
repository. |
