Attention on Deck!

The Commandant's Reading List has been revised effective 8 July 2011.

The Library of the Marine Corps carries these titles either in print or audio. Search the catalog here.

You can also find many titles at Navy Knowledge Online (NKO).

These documents show which Reading List books are available on Navy Knowledge Online (NKO) and ebrary (a USMC Research Library database).

For all patrons, ebrary is accessible while in the Library.

The Basics:

All Marines are required to read the Commandant's choice: First to Fight: An Inside View of the U.S. Marine Corps, by LtGen Victor H. Krulak (USMC Ret).

Each Marine is also required to read at least 1 book per grade per year. See ALMAR 027-11 for details.
