The Sixties: Primary Documents and Personal Narratives, 1960 to 1974 is now live. The first online collection of primary sources to turn '60s memory into history, The Sixties documents the key events, trends, and movements of the decade and their effects into the middle of the next.
When complete, the collection will contain 150,000 pages of cross-searchable content, including thousands of artifacts from "hidden" archives and a trove of materials not available anywhere else.
Our most collaborative project to date, The Sixties allows libraries, researchers, and individuals to submit their personal or institutional materials for inclusion in the collection. Using an online form, content suggestions will go directly to our editor.
Spanning 1960 to 1974, The Sixties is organized around 12 central themes: Civil Rights; the Women’s Movement; the Vietnam War; the Counterculture; Student Activism; the Environmental Movement; Gay and Lesbian Rights; Law and Government; the New Left and Emerging Neo-Conservative Movement; Science and Technology; Mass Media; and Arts, Music, and Leisure.
The Sixties is available to libraries and educational institutions via annual subscription or outright purchase of perpetual rights. Read the full press release on our Web site, and contact us today to request a free trial or a price quote.
