Information in the Philadelphia Architects and Buildings database comes from archival holdings at participating institutions, as well as from published sources. The list of sources used in the Philadelphia Architects and Buildings database, and the information gleaned from those sources, can be searched from this page.

If we are aware that a title is still available commercially, there will be a link to the book on Amazon. Using the links from PAB to purchase books on Amazon helps support the Philadelphia Architects and Buildings project and its host, the Athenaeum of Philadelphia.
