When researching Marilyn, it’s important to know where to look. The internet can give only so much so I have compiled a go-to list, similar to my recommended books, of where you can seek very useful Marilyn information and images. Remember that not all books, documentaries and websites will be 100% accurate but I find them incredibly useful for researching Marilyn.
