The Encyclopedia of Alabama is an encyclopedia of the state of Alabama's history, culture, geography, and natural environment. It is a statewide collaboration that involves more than forty institutions from across Alabama that share their archives with the project. Auburn University hosts the encyclopedia's editorial offices and servers and the Alabama Humanities Foundation holds copyright to the encyclopedia's original content. The Alabama Humanities Foundation (est. 1974), is "the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities." Funding comes from a variety of sources including the Alabama Department of Education and the University of Alabama.
Historian Wayne Flynt is serving as the project's editor-in-chief.
