The experience of the History and Computer Association (HCA) in the creation and use of information resources of historical information science (information and analytical), a modern interdisciplinary direction in historical research, is analyzed. Information from primary sources, both archival and published, are the basis for the secondary sources creation – from local databases, descriptive, tabular and graphical research results – to large-scale thematic resources of a scientific and educational nature. The sources of information, dynamics and structure of information resources resulted from the development of thematic databases and websites of a scientific and educational nature are considered.
