History - Africa and the Diaspora Research Guide

This guide will help you find recommended resources for research in History in the areas of Africa and the diaspora. Use the menu on the left to find suggested resources and starting points for your research.

Make a research appointment to meet individually with a Research & Instruction librarian. You can request your specific subject librarian—they're also shown in the Subject Librarian box of most guides. You can also email them directly, or email us at library@amherst.edu for general questions or libcirc@amherst.edu for questions about your account.

Ask at the Reference Desk (via chat—click on the Mammoth!) 

Academic year hours for Research & Instruction Librarians:
Monday - Friday 11 am - 5 pm
(or whenever the Mammoth isn't skeletal)

and look for our Peer Research Assistants at the desk weeknights from 5-9p!
