Digital resources

Many collections from the American Antiquarian Society are available digitally via digital collections, inventories, online exhibitions, project, and specialized catalogs. Digital collections include both resources that are freely available as well as subscription-only resources (these are clearly indicated in the chart below). Subscription digital collections can be freely accessed by readers who are on-site in the library. Inventories, which are all freely available, will include a mix of information including simple lists of objects or names, image files of individual pieces in a collection, descriptions of objects, or a combination of all of these. Online exhibitions are freely available and include descriptive and historical content about a collection as well as images and related resources. Specialized catalogs provide information not included in the general catalog.
