The AMA Archives – the memory of the American Medical Association – documents the rich history of the nation's most respected and influential medical organization. Composed of more than fifty major collections, the Archives preserves documents, photographs, films, books, memorabilia, and artifacts that cover the full range of AMA initiatives and activities from medical ethics and medical education to clinical research, public health, and scores of other professional issues. AMNews has referred to the Archives as "an extensive historical resource about the AMA and, by extension, the social history of American medicine."
The Archives is a unique asset exclusively available to AMA members, medical society and AMA staff researchers.
