A regular regimental journal can be a valuable source of information. ''The Highland Light Infantry Chronicle'' was published quarterly, from Volume 1, no. 1 January 1893 to Volume 54, no. 3, December 1958. Some editions are available online, see below. The [[British Library]] has this publication in its catalogue. Another source may be the [[National Army Museum]], or the Regimental Museum.
