The CARL website has moved. http://carl.army.mil/ will still redirect you to the library's website (http://usacac.army.mil/cac2/cgsc/carl/), but if you have bookmarked any internal pages that are not http://carl.army.mil/, it will be necessary to update those bookmarks.
We are sorry for any inconveniance this may cause.

Looking for digital resources while the Archive and Documents Departments are closed?
The History of Army Officer Education, a bibliography by the CARL Reference Staff.
As of yesterday, the CARL website has been down, preventing patron access to the online catalog, journals and other online resources. We are attempting to remedy the situation as quickly as possible.
Until then, feel free to contact the library (913-758-3053) for assistance in locating resources.
A Thousand Splendid Suns is the haunting story of two women amid thirty years of turmoil in Afghanistan. It’s one of the few looks at the way war and conflict has affected the Afghan people from a literary point of view.
It is a story that is, in some ways, hard to read. There are enough detailed renderings of violence and suffering to fill several lesser volumes. The underlying messages of hope, friendship and love carry the reader through, however, and make a lasting impact that makes this book worth reading.
On Thursday, December 31, the library will close at 1600. The rest of the holiday hours will remain the same, and can be found at http://carl.army.mil/hours.asp
The Archives Department and the Documents Department located on the 3rd
floor of the CARL are closed for renovations to improve the climate
control system.
From now to April 2010 Archives and Documents will not be able to
retrieve materials or answer archival research in preparation for the
renovation.
After April 2010 Archives and Documents will be on the 1st floor to
provide reference to assist in finding sources which are available
online or at other institutions but will not be able to retrieve CARL
archival or document materials as the collections will be in storage.
We expect the renovation to take about a year. Faculty, students, and
researchers should be aware that third floor materials will not be
available during that time.
The CARL will be running on reduced hours for the holiday season.
