Ethnography (eHRAF)
The eHRAF Collection of Ethnography, published annually by Human Relations Area
Files (HRAF), is a full-text, fully-indexed cultural database. It focuses on
mostly pre-industrial cultures from around the world, and on North American
immigrant groups. eHRAF differs from other databases because the documents (e.g.
books, journal articles, dissertations) are indexed at the paragraph-level with
over 700 subject codes from the Outline of Cultural Materials (OCM).
Access is restricted
to the UWS campus by IP (Internet Protocol) number. If you are trying to access
this database from off campus and are a UWS student, faculty, or staff, you
will need to establish a proxy account. See our Indexes
and Reserves by Proxy information page for instructions.
