Researchers and historians are nothing without our resources, whether that be other historians, curators, or your local library and archives. This list is an ever-growing entity of online resources I find helpful in my research. I cannot stress the importance of cross-checking your work and always consult with experts if you have the opportunity. Be sure to check back often as I will be adding to the list over time. Also, I shouldn’t have to say this but I will, Wikipedia is an incredible resource and can be extraordinarily helpful, but keep in mind that anyone can edit the pages, so always be sure to cross-check any information you may be getting from there or any other resource.
