HOLLIS for Archival Discovery

Catalog for exploring collection guides, finding aids, and inventories to locate unique materials in Harvard's special collections and archives.

Overview

HOLLIS for Archival Discovery (previously OASIS) is specifically designed for finding special collections and archival materials at 30 Harvard repositories. 

These materials include primary sources like letters, photographs, film, 3D objects, and digital content. You can even save and return to your search results so you don’t lose the materials you’ve found.

Not all archival and special collections at Harvard have a finding aid, and are therefore not searchable in HOLLIS for Archival Discovery. To find other materials in special collections, use HOLLIS.
