Church History Resources at BYU
Several departments at Brigham Young University create valuable Church history resources and tools that aid in the study of the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These departments and organizations include the Harold B. Lee Library, the Joseph Fielding Smith Institute for Latter-day Saint History, Religious Education, Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship, and BYU Studies. This page contains links to some useful Web pages created at BYU.

Harold B. Lee Library
This site contains the Harold B. Lee Library catalog and digital collections. The digital collections include theses and dissertations, Mormon Studies Index, and Trails of Hope: Overland Diaries and Journals, 1846–1869.

L. Tom Perry Special Collections Library
"Housed in Special Collections [at Brigham Young University's Harold B. Lee Library] is a vast array of printed books and pamphlets, manuscript, maps, music, fireside broadcasts, fine artistic printing, posters, and photographs."

BYU Studies
A periodical that "strives to explore scholarly perspectives on LDS topics, . . . BYU Studies strives to publish articles that openly reflect a Latter-day Saint point of view and are obviously relevant to subjects of general interest to Latter-day Saints, while conforming to high scholarly standards."

Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
The Maxwell Institute fosters study and research on the Book of Mormon, the Pearl of Great Price, the Doctrine and Covenants, the Old and New Testaments, and on a select number of ancient manuscripts and texts associated with the formative period of the Christian era. It also publishes a number of periodicals, books, and other material dealing with these subjects that are of particular interest to members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
