  • 1 Inventaire Du Journal Le Madawaska Et La République
    INVENTAIRE DU JOURNAL LE MADAWASKA ET LA RÉPUBLIQUE 2004 par France NADEAU sous la direction de Guy LEFRANÇOIS Bibliothèque Rhéa-Larose Université de Moncton Campus d'Edmundston Edmundston, N.-B. 2005 1 Cet index est également disponible en format PDF sur le site Internet de la bibliothèque à l'adresse suivante: http://www.umce.ca/biblio/index2004.PDF Vous y consulterez également d'autres années du journal Le Madawaska, ainsi que le Thésaurus (liste des sujets utilisés). 2 Préface Le journal Le Madawaska a connu des changements majeurs en 2004. Le présent inventaire reflète ces modifications. Faisant suite à l'acquisition du journal Le Madawaska en janvier 2003, les nouveaux propriétaires décident de modifier la journée de parution du journal, passant du mercredi au mardi à compter du 20 avril 2004. De plus, un nouveau journal est créé, soit La République, qui paraît le vendredi à compter du 23 avril 2004. Quelques mois plus tard, la parution de Le Madawaska revient le mercredi à compter du 13 octobre et La République paraît alors le samedi, à compter du 16 octobre. Ce dernier est livré à domicile et est gratuit. Pour les fins de l'indexation, nous avons intégré le journal La République à Le Madawaska, tout en respectant l'ordre chronologique de parution. 3 Introduction L'inventaire du journal Le Madawaska et La République est une initiative du service de la référence de la Bibliothèque Rhéa-Larose de l'Université de Moncton, campus d'Edmundston. Le service de la référence veut ainsi reconnaître l'influence considérable qu'a connu et que continue de connaître ce journal dans le développement et l'évolution de la pensée sociale au Madawaska.
