Arizona Memory Project Research Guide

A guide for how to use the Arizona Memory Project (AMP) for research and how local institutions can contribute content to AMP.

About

The Arizona Memory Project (AMP) helps researchers discover information related to the history and government of Arizona by providing access to primary sources in Arizona archives, museums, libraries, and other cultural institutions. Visitors to the site will find some of the best examples of government documents, photographs, maps, and multimedia that chronicle Arizona's past and present.

The items in the Arizona Memory Project represent only a small percentage of the materials held by contributing institutions. Please contact any of the contributors for more information about their collections.

Contribution Sources

The Arizona Memory Project receives content from in-house digitization efforts and from external contributing institutions (Partners).

Partners include libraries, archives, historical societies, museums, governments and government agencies (local, county, state, federal, and tribal), charities, non-profits, businesses/corporations, and members of the public.

History

The Arizona Memory Project launched in 2006 with 11 contributing institutions and 17 collections. Since then, AMP has grown to over 100 contributing institutions and over 500 collections.
