This is a library of older ankylosaur articles in PDF (older than 50 years), plus some translations (some of these I have also submitted to the Polyglot Paleontologist website). Many of the PDFs below are taken from my reprint collection, hence many have scribbles and underlines. I am posting these because whenever I have had visitors studying ankylosaurs here, they inevitably copy large portions of the collection. Copies of my ankylosaur articles may be found here. I have also received PDFs of articles from Denver Fowler and Dinosaur Digital Library Project (DDLP). These are gratefully acknowledged, especially since these are a time saver for me.
