More Blogging Historians
Blogs authored by professional historians reveal a side of historical scholarship not found elsewhere. Here are several of my favoriate historian-generated blogs:
Guide Introducation
Welcome to Temple University Libraries' history research guide. Here you will find a variety of research tools and resources to support your academic work. This page provides quick access to articles, journals, and books, plus links to historians' blogs and a history poll.
Bookmark this guide for easy retrieval: http://guides.temple.edu/history.
Search Summon!
Summon is a simple yet powerful new search tool that allows researchers to discover the breadth of TU Libraries' collections. Whether you need to find books, newspapers, journal articles, dissertations and theses, music and film, archival material and more, Summon has you covered.
Nothing we have seen in academic search compares with Summon, but the closest analog is Google Scholar. Summon covers all the books and other resources cataloged in Diamond plus a great deal of content from the various library databases. By default Summon searches resources available only to the Temple community. Summon does not cover or reproduce all of the Libraries' content, so it cannot substitute for the core disciplinary databases. Click here to learn more about Summon.

If you're exploring various ways to use your graduate degree in history then check out this unique blog maintained by historian Nicholas Evan Sarantakes.

Chicago Manual of Style
Online version of the well-known style guide now in its 16th edition. Historians employ this style almost exclusively, but so do researchers in many other disciplines. Also consider the Temple University Writing Center's guide to the Chicago Style (15th ed.).
History Poll
Since at least the publication of R.G. Collingwood's classic, The Idea of History (c1946), scholars have debated whether History belongs in the humanities or social sciences. What do you think?
