Notes:
A collection of finding aids (opisi) and records (dela) documenting the activities of the Soviet State and Communist Party from 1917 until 1991. Microfilmed from the holdings of the Center for the Preservation of Contemporary Documentation (TsKhSD) [now called the Russian State Archive of Contemporary History (RGANI)], the Russian Center for the Preservation and Study of Documents from Most Recent History (RTsKhIDNI) [now called the Russian State Archive of Social and Political History (RGASPI), and the State Archives of the Russian Federation (GARF).

The dela will be purchased last.

Russian revolutionary literature at Houghton Library of Harvard University. Research Publications, 1973.
LOCATION: Davis Microforms Coll Microfilm -- CALL NUMBER: 1-2951

Based on the holdings of the Harvard University Houghton Library and supplemented with materials from additional sources, the Russian Revolutionary Literature Collection on microfilm offers over 1,000 titles by anonymous and well-known authors in and around Russia. The classic collection originated from a box of materials on the revolutionary movement offered in 1896 by Ivan Panin, the American correspondent of the Geneva publication Obshchee delo. From that box came such rare and valuable titles as Listok Narodnoi voli, Nabat, Obshchee delo, and Vestnik Narodnoi voli. The collection dates as far back as the report of a commission on the 1825 Decembrists' uprising. It also contains materials by Aleksander Herzen, to whom the origins of Russian socialism can be traced, along with the writings of Bakunin, Chernyshevskii, Tkachev, Plekhanov, Kropotkin, Chernov, Martov, Trotskii, Lenin. In addition to books, pamphlets, and journals by these and other authors, there are hundreds of ephemeral pieces, mostly anonymous or pseudonymous, which were distributed among the workers and peasants, particularly before and during the Revolution of 1905. The collection includes writings of various groups and intellectual persuasions, from the early anarchists and populists on up to the Socialist Revolutionary Party and Lenin's Russian Social Democratic Labor Party. Most of this revolutionary material was published abroad or on underground presses within Russia, but the Russian Revolutionary Literature Collection also includes a number of legally issued publications of major authors, as well as monarchist broadsides, plus some official "Tsarist publications about the revolutionary movement."

Sanktpeterburgskiia viedomosti [microform serial].Sanktpeterburg : Imperatorskaia Akademiia Nauk, 1728-1917. [Title S-Peterburgskiia viedomosti 1863-1917]. Microfilm produced by IDC.
Russia's first newspaper, launched by Peter the Great as a biweekly publication, served as an outlet for the government as well as a profit-making enterprise for the publishers. The first two or three pages contained decrees, information on visits to court and other official news, followed by local and foreign news, required announcements of departures of foreigners, and anything else deemed newsworthy. Contains a wealth of information that can be found nowhere else and provides insight into how the government wished to portray itself, the outside world, and its relations with that world. The library owns the complete microfilms for 1728-1815, and is gradually filling in gaps in the quite extensive holdings for the following hundred years. A Guide is kept in the Microforms Collection.
