American Newspapers and Microforms

Due to the extensive number of titles from this period available in the Newspapers and Microforms Department (located on Bostock 1), only those titles for which we have fairly extensive holdings for 1865-1877 have been listed.  Some long runs may be missing some issues.  Runs which are very incomplete have "scattered" written after the dates.  Emphasis was also placed on southern papers and those from very large northern cities.  There are many titles for which we only have paper copies, rather than microform holdings.  Please contact the Bostock Help Desk for information on where to find these issues.

The newspapers below are organized alphabetically by state and then by title of paper.
