Each month, one of our Subject Librarians chooses an electronic resource which they feel will be of interest to you.

September’s Resource of the Month has been selected by Helen Worrell, Subject Consultant for Anthropology.

Helen’s choice is Anthropology Online. It was chosen because it brings together a wide range of written ethnographies, field notes, seminal texts, memoirs, and contemporary studies, covering human behaviour the world over.

Resource Overview

Anthropology Online brings together a wide range of written ethnographies, field notes, seminal texts, memoirs, and contemporary studies, covering human behaviour the world over. The database contains more than over 100,000 pages of full-text material, including tens of thousands of pages of previously unpublished material from major archives. Cross-searchable with Ethnographic Video Online, Alexander Street’s collection of classic and contemporary films for the anthropology classroom, Anthropology Online provides sociologists, anthropologists, cultural historians, and others with complete works of the key practitioners and theorists alike throughout the discipline.

Where can you access the resource

Anthropology Online can be accessed via SOLO.
