Beginning July 2020, Atkins Library will have a subscription to the Adam Matthew (AM) collections included in the AM Explorer platform. This includes access to many of the collections you have requested from the library for your courses and research.

• From July - December 2020 access includes collections issued from 2019 and earlier (check marked items)*.
• Beginning January 2021 access to the 2020 collections will be added to the subscription.

The subscription secures access through December 2021. To communicate the value of this resource and to secure continued access we need your feedback.

* Resources listed under "Research Source" are not included with this subscription.

This resource presents exciting new opportunities to engage students in primary source research. To brainstorm ways to incorporate Adam Matthew collections into your curriculum, assignments, or teaching, please reach out to your subject librarian. Librarians can also provide remote instruction to students on how to navigate this resource within a class session or individual research consultation.

You can search broadly across AM collections using the Explorer platform, or you can search within specific collections. Links to each collection will be added to the library catalog and the databases list in July. You can also browse and access them from the Explorer platform. There are certain features that are only available when starting from a specific collection platform.
