Archives of Ontario Original and Microfilmed Newspaper Collections in the Archives of Ontario Most Recent Update: L 23 Customer Service Guide December 2003 Introduction This finding aid (L 23) contains a complete inventory of original newspaper holdings of the Archives of Ontario for newspapers published in the province of Ontario and its predecessors, Upper Canada and Canada West, which are not on microfilm. The finding aid also includes an inventory of the Archives holdings for all newspapers on microfilm, regardless of place of publication. The microfilm series for these newspapers are prefixed by an "N" code. Please consult the newspaper card catalogue in the Main Reading Room for detailed descriptions of individual reel contents of newspapers on microfilm, and for the reel numbers of mastheads listed here. Historical introductions and tables of contents for the newspapers on microfilm are filed by "N" number in Appendices "A" to "C" of the Newspapers Collection Inventory. Column eight in Appendices A4 and A5 indicates whether an introduction is available () or not (X) for newspapers under a specific "N" number. These introductions are usually on the first reel of each microfilm series. Original Newspapers are listed alphabetically by masthead (Appendix A1), then by place (Appendix A2), with the exception of Toronto, which is catalogued separately (Appendix A3). Newspapers on Microfilm are listed sequentially by the "N" catalogue number for the film series (Appendix A4), then by place of publication, followed by masthead and date range order (Appendix A5). NB: the definite article “The” has been omitted from the Masthead listings and the community’s name has usually been deleted, if it is the same as the one in the "Place of Publication" column. The “Pub” column refers to the frequency of publication, and is outlined as follows: “BM” = bi-monthly “BW” = bi-weekly “D” = daily “M” = monthly "2M" = twice monthly “Q” = quarterly “SW” = semi weekly "SM" = semi-monthly “TW” = tri weekly “W” = weekly “Y” = yearly The “Dates” column indicates the outside dates of the publication, and the following abbreviations have been used to indicate the months: Ja / F / Mr / Ap/ My/ Je/ Jy / Ag/ S/ O/ N/ D. The “Run” column indicates the exact begin and end dates or issues in the holdings of the Archives of Ontario. There may be gaps for issues of the years in the "Dates" column, which can be determined from the card catalogue or the Tables of Contents in the microfilm Introductions. Column 2 in Appendices A4 and A5 shows the total "# of reels" containing the run for a specific masthead in that "N" film series. Appendices A4 and A5 also indicate in the last column whether a reproduction negative is available to duplicate the entire reel (N), or whether only a positive duplicate print exists in our holdings (P). The Archives of Ontario cannot make duplications of whole reels for which it does not hold the negatives. For detailed descriptions of original and microfilmed Non-Ontario Newspapers at the Archives of Ontario, consult the red binder Appendices (Vol. 1 and Vol. 2) of the Newspapers Collection Inventory and the card catalogue. How to Use This Index If you know the name of the newspaper, check Appendix A1 which is organized by name of masthead. If you don’t know the specific newspaper you are looking for, or know the place where it was published, go to Appendix A2 or Appendix A5. These are listings by geographical place. If you are looking for an original Toronto newspaper, see Appendix A3. If you need a breakdown of the holdings of a specific "N" microfilm series, consult Appendix 4. If you have found a newspaper run with an assigned "N" number, you may consult the catalogue cards for the exact reel number of a specific run or masthead. The catalogue cards are arranged by place of publication, then by masthead. These microfilms are available through our self-service microfilm area To submit a request for an original, please cite "Original Newspaper," name of the paper and Container reference (listed in the far right column, when known) on request slips when ordering original material into the Main Reading Room. Original copies of newspapers on microfilm (Appendices A4 and A5) are not available for retrieval to the Main Reading Room. -2- Appendix A1: Listing of Original Ontario Newspapers by Masthead Masthead Place Publication Dates Run Container Frequency Advance Ayton W 1922 N9 6-1 Advance Burford W 1963 Mr7 28-1 Advance Dutton W 1984, 1894-Ag16, 27-1 1967 1967-Je28 Advance Flesherton W 1895, Incomplete 6-1 1927 Advance Maxville W 1910 S16 16-1 Advertiser L’Orignal W 1869- Incomplete 20-1 1889 Advertiser Niagara Falls SW 1898 Jy13 Advertiser Port Hope M 1863 13-1 Advertiser Stratford W 1884 Jy3 8-2 Advertiser’s Peterborough 1975- Incomplete 8-2 News 1977 Advertiser-Topic Petrolia W 1974 Je19 9-1 Advocate Arthur W 1862 7-1 Advocate Fergus W 1885, Incomplete 7-1 1889 Advocate Lindsay 1855 Ap12 13-1 Advocate and Chippawa W 1850 Je20 10-1 Welland County Intelligencer Age-Dispatch Strathroy W 1926, Incomplete 9-3 1935 Alberton Star Fort Frances W 1878- Incomplete 25-1 1879 Algoma Thessalon W 1923, Incomplete 9-3 Advocate 1936 Algoma Pioneer Sault Ste.
