Most library resources in military history are housed in Perkins Library.  Databases, useful for identifying journal articles and other materials, are accessible online across campus.  Reference books including guides, encyclopedias, dictionaries and atlases are housed in the Perkins Reference area. The Lilly Library reference collection has a limited number of  resources in military history, as well.  Increasingly there are electronic collections of reference works pertinent to the study of military history.
