ArchivesUSA

The ArchivesUSA database provides information about primary source materials from thousands of manuscript repositories in the United States. It includes records, complete with detailed indexes for manuscript and other special collections. ArchivesUSA integrates three resources: the National Union Catalog of Manuscript Collections (NUCMC), the Directory of Archives and Manuscript Repositories in the United States (DARMUS), and the National Inventory of Documentary Sources in the United States (NIDS). Researchers can search descriptions of manuscript collections in the United States, link to information about the repositories, and locate the finding aids in NIDS, a microfiche collection which is available in the Microform Reading Room.
