Microforms: Newspapers

The Marriott Library has issues from over 1100 newspapers in microform.  This doesn't mean we have complete runs of any given title.  In fact, for many of these titles there are gaps, sometimes quite substantial ones, in our holdings.  This is due to the impermanent nature of newspapers themselves -- often printed on poor paper and intended for immediate consumption rather than long-term preservation, it can be difficult, if not impossible, to put together a complete run, and the longer ago the paper was published and the smaller the circulation, the harder it can be.
