What it does
The Encyclopedia of Alabama provides entries across the state's history, people, geography, culture and public life.
Use the subject menu to narrow a research question, or start with quick facts for a first overview. The county-oriented Explore Alabama area offers a place-based route into the material. Its range includes agriculture, education and science as well as history, so a local research project can follow a theme across several kinds of entry.
