Teaching, learning and research essentials
AM Primary provides essential interdisciplinary content for your institution with foundational material crucial for teaching, learning and research.
Developed in collaboration with leading archives and research institutions around the world, these comprehensive collections unlock new pathways for research, with access to an unmatched breadth of content across a diverse range of thematic areas, time periods and subjects.
Breadth of content
Designed to support current research needs while addressing critical teaching topics, the rich source content is dynamic and wide-ranging. From correspondence to artwork, newspapers and photographs, to oral histories and film footage.
Multidisciplinary support
Multiple gateways into a topic with a broad range of subjects spanning the arts, humanities and social sciences. From literature, business and religion to war, politics and popular culture.
Deeper understanding
Commissioned essays, interviews, glossaries and biographies familiarise students with the wealth of primary sources in each collection and situate the content in current debates for a deeper understanding of the themes and research topics.
Primary sources at the heart of education
Strong library and archive partnerships are key to AM Primary. Our approach centres on deep engagement with the primary sources and the people who preserve, catalogue, and protect them. Many collections in the series contain content from multiple archives around the world, others focus on a single collection. In every case, time spent in the archive is paramount to the creation of an AM Primary resource.
