The Adverts 250 Project is now listed among the Digital Humanities Projects Using AAS Materials on the American Antiquarian Society‘s website.

The vast majority of eighteenth-century sources in America’s Historical Newspapers (distributed by Readex) derive from the AAS’s collections.  Although I use digital surrogates to pursue this project, it would not have been possible without the curatorial, preservation, conservation, and cataloging work of the AAS and their willingness and enthusiasm in pursuing digitization projects to make their collections more accessible to scholars, students, and the general public.

Many thanks to the American Antiquarian Society for supporting the Adverts 250 Project!
