History Resources

Resources for students of History.

Welcome to the History Guide!

Please feel free to email, or make an appointment with me via the Schedule Appointment box on the left.

This guide is intended to get you started with resources for any type of research project that may relate to History. While it relies heavily on more traditional scholarly and password protected material only available to the Kenyon community, I am working to add material of hidden and oppressed voices in order to help researchers fill out the gaps in our understanding of research, scholarship, and ourselves. Suggestions are encouraged and welcome!
