Historic U.S. Newspapers

Chronicling America, the historic newspaper project by the Library of Congress and the National Endowment for the Humanities, is a tremendous resource for anyone studying mass media history or anyone just interested in the past. The web site has a searchable database of hundreds of U.S. newspapers with descriptive information and pages digitized. Users can not only see entire issues of valuable old newspapers but search for individual stories.
