These sources index more than one newspaper in a single subject line.  National Newspaper Index is available in several formats: on microfilm it provides three years of coverage of the New York Times, the Christian Science Monitor, the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, and the Wall Street Journal.  When retired from the active microfilm index, the information is transferred to a microfiche index, which is located in the Reference Department in Perkins Library.  The index started in 1979.  Online searching via DIALOG or BRS covers the complete file back to 1979 (L.A. and D.C. papers added in 1982).  By combining terms, which may also be limited by date, author, newspaper, etc., one might retrieve results more precisely or retrieve citations which were not located by simple subject access.
