Very often your local public library is the best place to start research on military history. Almost all libraries have collections of local newspapers, which will often contain references to the participation of individuals in conflict as well as reports of casualties. These libraries will also hold locally produced journals, magazines, and souvenir booklets that contain information on military history and may be unavailable elsewhere. To pursue research further it may be necessary to visit either the National Library or a private or specialist library. In that case you will need to ascertain opening hours and rules of access.
