This is the second edition, revised, of "The Collections and Programs of the American Antiquarian Society - A 175th Anniversary Guide" (1987). The American Antiquarian Society was founded in 1812 by the famed printer-patriot Isaiah Thomas. Today, its library houses the world's best and most accessible collections of material related to the history and culture of the United States to the year 1876. The contents of this guide have been updated to reflect the Society's on-going efforts to bring more of its collections under bibliographical control. It covers major recent acquisitions and the current state of its scholarly programmes, including the AAS Program in the History of the Book in American Culture. An entirely new and expanded index should make the revised edition much easier to use.
