Academic publisher SAGE has announced the purchase of primary sources publisher Adam Matthew at the Frankfurt Book Fair.
Best known for digitising the Mass-Observation Archives at the University of Sussex, the 'American West' project with The Newberry Library, Chicago, and a wide range of resources from The National Archives, Kew, Adam Matthew is a publisher of online primary source collections for the humanities and social sciences. Sourced from leading libraries and archives around the world, their unique research and teaching collections cover a wide range of subject areas from medieval family life to 20th century history, literature and culture.
Adam Matthew will continue to operate under its existing management from its offices in Marlborough, Wiltshire, and Chicago, Ill. SAGE sales representatives will work closely with the Adam Matthew team to bring the portfolio to an even wider international audience, building on the experience gained working as the Adam Matthew agent in the Middle East since January 2012.
