Summary

From October 1997 to June 1999 the Women’s History Project undertook a survey of a large number of public and private repositories in the Republic of Ireland and in Northern Ireland for collections or information relating to the history of women in Ireland from the earliest of times to the 1990s. This website, Sources for Irish Women’s History, is an updated version of that original survey. In 2022 this material was updated with checks being made on the repositories and their addresses. Collections and lists of material were, in some cases revised and websites, where available, were added. The update has resulted in this website which contains 20,790 records and 2,413 collections from 221 repositories around the country.
