About the Archive
History
The Minority Health and Health Equity Archive was originally founded in 2004 as the Minority Health Archive
by Dr. Stephen B. Thomas in collaboration with the Center for Minority Health and the University Library
System at the University of Pittsburgh to serve as an online repository of print and electronic media related
to the health of the four nationally recognized minority groups in the United States: African
American/Black, Native American, Hispanic/Latino, and Asian American/Pacific Islander (See the NIH policy
on reporting race and ethnicity data for subjects in clinical research, NOTICE NOT-OD-01-053).
Since its creation, the University Library System, University of Pittsburgh (ULS) has provided technical and
material support for the Minority Health and Health Equity Archive in its ongoing commitment to free and
open access to scholarly research material. In 2011, the editorship of the Archive moved from the
University of Pittsburgh's Center for Minority Health to the University of Maryland Center for Health Equity,
established November 2010 under the direction of Dr. Stephen B. Thomas. The Archive continues to be
hosted by the University Library System, University of Pittsburgh as part of its part of its D-Scribe Digital
Publishing program.
Contents of the Minority Health and Health Equity Archive
The Minority Health and Health Equity Archive has a goal to be the primary repository and archive for all
materials related to minority health. Therefore, materials submitted to the Minority Health and Health
Equity Archive must deal with or relate to the health of the minority racial/ethnic groups in the United
States (Black/African American, Native American, Native Hawaiian, Latino/Hispanic, and Asian
American/Pacific Islander). The materials submitted can be about the general health, current research
involving, or health disparities among any of these particular groups as well as materials related to the
major contributors and contributions to the field of minority health. Materials can include journal articles,
web-based materials, government documents, books, book chapters, conference proceedings, conference
papers, course outlines, events/presentations, images, pre-prints,theses/dissertations, and other materials
relevant to our goal.
