I am writing a paper for my english class over the history of percussion instruments. Anyone know of any good web sites I can find usefull information. I can not use google (teachers rules) so anything besides that. Its due in 5 weeks and I need good cites. Help?

You can also email someone in the music department at your local college. Most of the time they will be willing to help, or they can direct you to someone that will help. This can be used as a personal interview reference.

Can you use Wikipedia? There's tons of info there on just about anything you can imagine. As a bonus, most of the articles cite other sources you can use, too.
