Are you looking for local information? This survey was conducted to help you identify the holdings in our area (including notes about indexing), by town. The MAIN libraries included in our survey maintain current subscriptions to the Daily Record (Morris County) and the Star Ledger (Newark). Holdings are noted only for those libraries that own complete runs. If you are researching other New Jersey areas, or do not find the newspaper you need listed on our survey, contact us. Newspaper titles, dates and locations can also be researched using the Directory of New Jersey Newspapers: 1765-1970 (Wright & Stellhorn) or Newspapers in Microform (Library of Congress). A list of online newspapers is uploaded by the Internet Public Library. Some of these newspapers offer searchable archives. In addition to these resources, most libraries maintain clippings files, scrapbooks and other local history collections. You can always write or call a library for help with tracking down local information. Your librarian can provide you with the appropriate contacts. Looking for an obituary?
