To support the preparation of an edition of the papers of Andrew Jackson.

The Papers of Andrew Jackson is a scholarly historical editing project, the goal of which is to collect and publish the extant literary record of the seventh president. The publications will be in two complementary media - a microfilm, including all documents and copies not on Library of Congress and National Archives films, and seventeen printed volumes, highly selective and carefully annotated to provide access to and background for the voluminous body of papers. The microfilm edition, 39 rolls of 35mm film, with a guide and index, was released in October 1986 and April 1987. The University of Tennessee Press has already published five volumes of the series (16 of Papers and a cumulative index). Volume 6 is ready to go to press, and the remaining volumes are scheduled for press delivery every twenty-four months, with completion in 2015.
