Out-of-State Newspapers on Microfilm: Alphabetical by State or Country, then sorted by Chronologically
This is a list of out-of-state (non-Kentucky) newspapers available on microfilm in the KHS Library. This list is organized alphabetically by state or country of publication, and then sorted chronologically. The list includes the city of publication (if known), years available, specific issue dates (if available), notes, and the microfilm reel number.
Every attempt has been made to correctly identify and include in this database dates and descriptions of non-Kentucky newspapers available on microfilm in the KHS Library. However, mistakes may exist, especially where reels have not yet been checked by staff. We apologize for any errors, and will issue corrections and updates as they become available.
