The main collection of ABCFM papers consists of documents, minutes and letters sent by the missionaries to the Board, arranged geographically by location of mission, then chronologically, then alphabetically by name of the missionary. The finding aid for the ABCFM papers at Houghton is available online.
Many of the papers of the ABCFM have been published in microfilm format, and we ask readers to use the microfilm copies whenever possible. You can access the reel listing here. Harvard faculty, students, staff, and proxies can access this material in Lamont. Researchers who are not Harvard affiliates can request the microfilm for use in Widener Library Reading Room 150.
