1. Author: NA Name of Website: The Berlin Airlift Title Of Article: NA Name of Online Database: Harry S. Truman Library and Museum URL: http://www.trumanlibrary.org/whistlestop/study_collections/berlin_airlift/ This source is filled with primary sources in the form of actual CIA documents from the time of the Berlin Airlift. I plan on using information from the documents in my research. They mostly detail the proceedings of West-Soviet negotiations and diplomacy at the time of the Airlift.

1. Author: NA Name of Website: Wikipedia Title Of Article: Berlin Blockade URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin_airlift#Berlin_airlift This site has provided me with general information to help introduce me into my topic. I plan to not use very much information from this site and instead get in from other sources.
2. Author: NA Name of Website: Spirit of Freedom Title Of Article: The Berlin Airlift URL: http://www.spiritoffreedom.org/airlift.html This site has provided me with general information which helped me get orientated with my topic. I will use this source instead of Wikipedia for general information about the Berlin Airlift.
3. Parish, Thomas. Berlin in the Balance. Reading, Massachusetts: Addison Wesley, 1998. This book is filled with in-depth information about the cause for the Berlin Airlift along with the Airlift itself. This book will be a major contributor to my research.
4. Haydock, Michael D. City Under Siege. Washington D.C.: Batsford Brassey, 1999. This book is also filled with in-depth information about the cause of the Airlift along with information about the Airlift itself. However, this book will be a smaller part of my research as I find the writing style of Berlin in the Balance easier to discern information from.
5. Schuffert, John H. Airlift Laffs. Washington D.C.: Air Force Times, 1949. This source is filled with newspaper comics drawn during the airlift. It showed me the general mood of people who worked in operations for the Airlift.
