This page is a bibliography of sources which may be used for writing articles on Lincolnshire topics. N.B.: This page is by no means complete and may be added to as and when I find new sources/have time. The citations used below may not be in the format(s) preferred for use on Wikipedia. A good bibliography of archaeological sources.

Victoria County History
The VCH is a project which aims to produce "an encyclopaedic record of England's places and people from earliest times to the present day." Its editors do so by studying the history of communities, relying often on primary evidence. The project has been based at the Institute for Historical Research (part of the University of London) since 1933; the work is reviewed by professional historians during its research-phase, and peer reviewed once completed. Only one volume has been completed for Lincolnshire and the project is inactive in the county.

 * The chapters on ecclesiastical history have been transcribed digitally, and are available at British History Online, run by the IHR. A scan of the complete book, with chapters on many other topics, is available at the Internet Archive.

History of Lincolnshire Project, SLHA
The History of Lincolnshire Project is co-ordinated by the History of Lincolnshire Committee of the Lincolnshire Society for History and Archaeology; it aims to produce "Thoroughly researched and authoritative accounts of the history and archaeology of the County". The works are written by "leading experts" in their fields and the committee is chaired by Professor John V. Beckett, University of Nottingham. The initial project aim was complete a history of the county over successive time periods, issued in 12 volumes, which were completed in 2000. Below are these volumes, numbered according. Since then, the Studies in Lincolnshire History series has been produced, concerning more particular studies in parts of the county's history; these are listed afterwards.

Politics
The History of Parliament is a project to write a comprehensive, scholarly history of the Parliaments of England, Great Britain and the United Kingdom. It consists of biographies of every member to have sat in any of these parliaments, as well as detailed surveys and statistical analyses of each constituency and its politics. The work is carried out by the Institute for Historical Research. Work is ongoing, though 41 separate volumes have been published to date, all of which cover the House of Commons. The published material to date was made available online, for free, in 2011. In addition to this, the following works discuss politics in all or part(s) of Lincolnshire:

Newspapers
The British Newspaper Archive is a project aimed at digitising 40 million newspaper pages from the British Library's newspaper archives. It is an ongoing work and is therefore incomplete; when it is finished, copyright laws dictate that it may only make most papers available online up to the early 1950s; a subscription is also required.

The Newsplan site allows you to search for newspaper titles from across the East Midlands and East of England; it returns a list of titles and gives information on which archives/libraries store them, with information on missing years and available formats.
