The Lusitania Resource is an independent collaborative project devoted to the history of RMS Lusitania, the British passenger ship sunk by German submarine U-20 on 7 May 1915. It serves as an online reference for the ship, its final voyage, and the people aboard, bringing together research, historical records, and contributions from visitors and specialist researchers.

The site offers detailed information on Lusitania’s design, construction, career, accommodations, deck plans, and sinking, alongside passenger and crew lists, biographies, survivor and victim records, and related statistics. Visitors can explore the ship’s rescue efforts, lifeboats, cargo, memorials, wartime context, and controversies surrounding the disaster. Resources also include primary documents, timelines, articles, image galleries, multimedia, data visualizations, a glossary, and frequently asked questions. Coverage extends to other ships and figures connected with Lusitania and the First World War.

The project also shares information about commemorations, research developments, and publications. Through its extensive historical material and community contributions, The Lusitania Resource aims to preserve the stories of the ship’s passengers and crew and encourage remembrance of the human consequences of war.
