Today’s news…yesterday’s history

From newsies yelling out headlines about the sinking of the Titanic to 24-hour news delivered electronically, there have always been ways to feed the hunger for knowledge about our world. The past, the present, and even speculation about the future come together at the Library online and on our shelves with our FREE extensive newspaper collection.

You can delve into the past to find information about your ancestors, conduct academic research, learn how your community came to be, enjoy looking at ads when a suit cost five dollars… Let your interests be the guide! Our genealogy department can provide extra assistance.

As history is being written today, you can access many current news stories across the country online FREE, including TV news sources. You can even search by subject!
