Our understanding of American history is incomplete without the Irish dimension, just as Irish America is a critical component in the course of Irish history. The Archives of Irish America is a repository of primary research materials at New York University that aims to transform our understanding of the Irish migration experience and the distillation of American Irish ethnicity over the past century. On this site, you can:

• Find out what archives are;
• For a list of our collections and collection policy;
• View our current exhibits;
• View images and transcriptions of selected Primary Documents;
• Find out more about Irish American Studies at NYU;
• Learn what new research is being done by NYU students; and
• Follow links to other sites.
