Online Archive of California
The Online Archive of California (OAC) provides free public access to detailed descriptions of primary resource collections maintained by more than 350 contributing institutions, including libraries, special collections, archives, historical societies, and museums throughout California as well as the collections maintained by the ten University of California (UC) campuses.
OAC’s comprehensive online collection guides make it easy to find collections and locate individual objects. These guides provide detailed descriptions of the items in a collection, as well as background, historical studies, and analyses (when available). Selected items have been digitally scanned, and may be available for immediate online viewing through links provided by contributing institutions.
Online Archive of California's Relationship to Calisphere
Calisphere and the OAC serve two very different user needs. The OAC is the best starting point for research-oriented users who want to go beyond what is available online and locate the actual, physical item. For users whose primary interest is to view digitized images and documents, Calisphere is a place to explore online content.
