Newspapers are like “the first rough draft of history” and are, therefore, an invaluable resource when researching events, individuals, and issues in the context of their time. Because newspaper articles are sometimes the only record of historical events, scholars from a variety of disciplines can benefit from them. Join us to gain strategies for conducting historical newspaper research with a discerning eye, using the Libraries’ newly expanded historical newspaper database collections.
