New Research Resources portal and member login launched
SABR members now have access to a newly designed and updated Research Resources portal at SABR.org. The new Research Resources area also offers a range of baseball guides, archives, and databases organized by subject matter — from Biographical Research to Minor Leagues to Statistics/Records. Find Research Resources by going directly to The Research Collection page or by using the “Research” dropdown menu at the top of any SABR.org page.
All SABR members have exclusive access to online resources to aid in your research and deepen the exploration of your baseball fandom, including the Historical Black Newspapers Collection and US Newspapers Collection through ProQuest; the Newspapers.com World Collection; and The Sporting News Archives through Paper of Record. Normally, access to these fantastic resources would cost over $250 annually, but they are included as a complimentary benefit of your SABR membership! Members also have special access to two large collections exclusively at SABR.org: the Weiss Baseball Questionnaires (nearly 100,000 self-completed surveys from baseball players between 1945 and 2005) and the MLB Team Employee Database (recently updated with 2025 MLB teams and Negro Leagues team employees.)
We have also rolled out a new promotional ad at SABR.org to help encourage other baseball fans to sign up for a monthly or annual membership. As a SABR member, you can click the gold Login now link in order to sign in and remove the pop-up for the rest of your browser session.
