The major work of the Women’s History Project is to survey and list sources relevant to the history of women in Ireland. Two major databases have been created from work undertaken between October 1997 and August 2001, and both are available here for online searching. The Directory of Sources for the History of Women in Ireland contains information on collections relating to the history of women in Ireland from the earliest times to the present, gathered from public and private repositories in the Republic of Ireland and in Northern Ireland. The Directory covers over 14,000 collections and sources and contains over 100,000 pieces of information from 262 repositories. Women in 20th-Century Ireland: Sources from the Department of the Taoiseach, 1922-1966 , is the result of a survey that involved examining the files of the Department of the Taoiseach between the years 1922 and 1966. Just under 2,000 boxes of files were examined. Every page within each file was perused to ascertain whether it contained any reference to women. This database contains just under 20,000 entries. Much remains to be done before we achieve an accurate picture of the place of women in Irish history. Our hope is that these databases will assist researchers to contribute to an understanding of that history.

"The first time it was fathers, the last time it was sons
In between your husbands marched away with drums and guns
And you never thought to question, you just went on with your lives
And all they taught you who to be was Mothers, Daughters, Wives" (The Corries)
Throughout history war and fighting have been seen as men's activities, however women have always been involved in battles and seiges, not to mention duels, prizefights and so on. The most common occasion on which women would take part in battles was when their home, castle or town was attacked. A medieval lady would have expected to take charge of defence in her husband's absence.

About Legacy '98:
1998 was the 150th Anniversary of the Women's Rights Movement , launched at the world's first Women's Rights Convention in Seneca Falls, New York. Throughout 1998, the tremendous positive changes brought about by the movement were celebrated in offices, schools, and communities nationwide in thousands of events. Because of countless millions of women who planned, organized, lectured, wrote, marched, petitioned, lobbied, paraded, and broke new ground in every field imaginable, our world is irrevocably changed. Women and men in our generation, and the ones that will follow us, are living the legacy of women's rights won against staggering odds in a revolution achieved without violence. Women have much to be proud of in the legacy of the Women's Rights Movement, and a great deal to celebrate on the anniversary of the founding of the Women's Rights Movement.

Women's History
The new emphasis on social history in the late 1960s and early 1970s not only led to an increased awareness of African-American history but also promoted greater scholarly interest in the history of women. Fortunately, the curators of the Library's manuscript holdings at the beginning of the twentieth century had the foresight to assemble one of the nation's best collections for the study of women's experience in America. In 1903, the same year that President Roosevelt directed the transfer of presidential papers and historical manuscripts from the State Department, Librarian of Congress Ainsworth Rand Spofford acquired the personal library and manuscripts of his friend Susan B. Anthony. Accompanying Anthony's papers were four portfolios of documents from her mentor, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, one of the founders of the women's rights movement. These included a manuscript copy of Stanton's controversial best-seller, The Woman's Bible (1895), whichto the horror of many suffragistscriticized church authority and attacked the use of Scripture to promote women's subjugation. Throughout the next half-century, the Manuscript Division augmented the Stanton and Anthony collections with the papers of other prominent suffragistsnotably Carrie Chapman Catt and the Blackwell familyamassing in the process an unparalleled source of documents relating to American women's fight for the vote. The division supplemented the papers of individual suffragists with the records of two significant organizations, the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA) and its more militant offshoot, the National Woman's Party (NWP). Once suffrage was secured, the NAWSA regrouped as the
