National Visitation Report
Do Americans still visit history organizations? To answer this question, each year AASLH's Public History Research Lab gathers data from institutions across the field to measure year-to-year change in visitation. These reports offer a broad perspective on Americans engagement with history organizations of all types and sizes and offers more specific benchmarking for individual institutions.
