HOLLIS for Archival Discovery is a specialized search tool that provides access to finding aids and collection guides for Harvard Library’s many special collections and archives.
Searching with this tool connects you to a wide variety of both digital and physical primary source materials, such as letters, diaries, business records, photographs, audio, video, print items, objects, and more. Through HOLLIS for Archival Discovery you can view digitized materials, select materials to use onsite in library reading rooms, or request copies of materials.
Not all archival and manuscript collections at Harvard have finding aids, and therefore these cannot be searched in HOLLIS for Archival Discovery. To find additional archival materials, use HOLLIS, Harvard Library's online catalog.
