Concurrent user limit: 5
Anthropological Index covers scholarly literature from physical anthropology, archaeology, cultural ethnography, and linguistics. Anthropological Index entries are compiled from over 900 journals in the Library of the British Museum Department of Ethnography -- now known as the Anthropology Library -- which incorporates the former Royal Anthropological Institute library. Broad geographic coverage emphasizes the Commonwealth and Africa and extends to Eastern Europe, the Americas, Asia, Australasia, and the Pacific, including both standard journals and many titles outside the mainstream.
Supplied by the Tozzer Library at Harvard University, Anthropological Literature provides a broad subject index to articles and essays two or more pages in length from about 1000 journals, as well as colloquia and symposia, publications and Festschriften, in English and in other European languages. Covers late 19th century to the present. Updated quarterly.
Together, Anthropological Index and Anthropological Literature provide international coverage with minimal overlap in citations, providing access to research in anthropology and related fields.

eHRAF World Cultures[MORE INFO]
HRAF is an acronym for Human Relations Area Files, a non-profit institution founded in 1949 at Yale University. HRAF is a consortium of educational, research, and cultural organizations, and government agencies; its mission is to encourage and facilitate the study of human culture, society, and behavior. This mission is accomplished mainly through the compilation, indexing, and distribution of a collection of ethnographic and other texts that are indexed by culture and subject. Today, HRAF has over 400 member institutions located in over 30 nations. In its early years the collection was distributed on paper slips. In 1958, HRAF began to reproduce the paper slips on microfiche. Microfiche reproduction ended in 1991, and all new material as well as retrospective conversion and updating of existing material began with the release of eHRAF on CD-ROM in April 1995. (eHRAF stands for the electronic collections of HRAF.) Currently HRAF has collections of ethnography, available on both CD-ROM and WWW. In 1998 HRAF began distributing a collection of archaeology in both formats. While all material currently on microfiche remains available on the fiche format, no new microfiche installments are being produced and all material added after 1991 is available only in electronic form.
