This guide contains places to search for primary sources. Regardless of where you look, check whether the documents you find are truly primary sources. The Primary or Secondary? guide can help you decide.
You might find books and ebooks containing primary sources in QuickSearch. Be aware that you may have to sort through items that are ABOUT primary sources rather than containing the primary sources themselves.
This customized search in QuickSearch is limited to books and ebooks that are likely to contain primary sources. Simply add your term(s) to the search box near the top of the page and hit enter or click the magnifying glass icon.
Example: If you are looking for primary sources related to the Holocaust, add the word Holocaust to the search box.
