This guide consists of collections of primary source material held by Alaskan archives, libraries, and museums which relate to the construction of roads and highways in Alaska. This guide is an overview of collections containing significant amounts of material relating to this topic and is not meant to be comprehensive or include every collection containing material related to the topic. Collections are listed by the holding institution. To access these, click on the name of the institution in the left hand column.

Many archives, museums, libraries, and government agencies hold additional information and documentation regarding roads and highways in Alaska, including materials not related to construction but to use and travel. You may want to search catalogs by using the road or highway name, or contact institutions such as city or borough government offices in the geographical vicinity of the roads.
