AA Archive: Online Catalogue
Cataloguing of the AA's archival holdings has recently been initiated and full descriptions of approximately 5% of records are now available via the Archives Hub – the JISC-funded gateway to archival description of UK Universities and Colleges. As this long-term cataloguing project progresses it is anticipated that descriptions of the AA's entire archival holdings will be made available on the Hub.
Collection-level descriptions will also be made available online via the AA Library Catalogue and the AIM 25 consortium of higher education archives in London and the M25 area.
