An ''Monthly Army List'' was an official War Office publication, which commenced August 1881 under this title and ceased after May 1940. (No issues published for Dec. 1897 and Jan. 1898). Based on library catalogues, Bodleian Libraries, University of Oxford, and the National Library of Scotland may have the best collections. The British Library holds a broken range of editions from October 1881 (UIN: BLL01013821218). The National Archives also holds Monthly Lists which are part of the Library collection<ref>David_Underdown.

Retrieved 9 June 2018.</ref>, however the date range is unclear. The [[National Army Museum]] appears to hold a limited number of editions before and after the WW1 period.

''Army List''s may be purchased on CD or by download, including for 1920-February (possibly a ''Monthly List''), 1923-June, 1929, 1932. <ref>[https://genealogysupplies.com/product/Military-and-Naval-Records/?r=Military-and-Naval-Records%2F&Type%5B0%5D=Army&Year%5B0%5D=1900&page=2 S&N Genealogy Supplies]</ref>
==''Monthly Army List''==
For at least some war periods a Confidential or "Security Edition" was also published with known editions August 1939 (available online) and September 1939, and it seems possible that ''Monthly List''s may have been continued after May 1940, to 1943, solely on a Confidential basis.<ref>From a comment in the British Library catalogue UIN: BLL01001094682 .</ref>
Note the ''Monthly Army List'' was a continuation of an earlier publication ''The Army List'' which appears also to have been published on a monthly basis (for at least some periods) and is available at the British Library with given date range 1809-1881. UIN: BLL01013821246 .

*Google Books editions. Elsewhere it has been stated there is an almost complete range of online editions for the period August 1920 to December 1936, (missing December 1928, Jan.-Feb. 1936) but the following are those which have been located. Note, many of the digital files contain two, or sometimes three volumes, the second/third volume is followed by the letters sdf meaning same digital file. Most of the volumes are from Stanford University, with 1881-1885 Oxford Univ. and some from New York Public Library NYPL. For some periods it may be possible to locate two different digital copies. '''Some files are badly scanned''', so Searching may to be unsuccessful. Generally there is a Table of Contents near the front of each print volume, and an Index of Names at the back of each print volume.
:'''There may be additional digital files which have not been located by the Google Search to date'''.
