Welcome!
Welcome to the Resources for History library guide. The Vanderbilt Libraries have a wealth of materials that will be beneficial to anyone doing research on all aspects of history.
All of the resources found within this course guide are available in one of the libraries on campus or online.
This is not intended to be a comprehensive resource - rather a good starting point for locally available resources for research and study. Please feel free to make suggestions for additions to the various categories.
