The Massachusetts Historical Society is a mid-sized library and historical institution in the United States focused on deepening understanding of Massachusetts and national history. It preserves and shares archival materials and related resources to support research and public learning. Since 2020, the society has organized an annual Juneteenth-focused exhibition aligned with National History Day Massachusetts to promote understanding of Juneteenth and to highlight student work that engages with African American history, culture, and freedom.

Its audience includes researchers, students, educators, and members of the public seeking historical context and insight into the state's and nation's past. The organization collaborates with other institutions to extend its reach, as evidenced by partnerships with the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate to host discussions that connect historical topics with contemporary political issues.
