We hope that this database will eventually cover the time period from 1976 through 1995. This database provides citations to articles published in a number of Fargo newspapers, but currently primarily for the Fargo Forum, regarding events in North Dakota and to a limited extent in other states. The latter was published in December 1892 and contains articles on businesses in Fargo, N.D. and Moorhead, Minn. as well as surrounding communities. A number of special editions of the Fargo Forum are included in this database. Entry format and topical headings follow closely those used for the entries in the 1987-1995 index.
Bracketed titles indicate no actual title.
Note is made of various accompanying illustrations, including photographs, maps, engravings, and cartoons. Occasionally an informative advertisement has been indexed and is so identified in brackets. Dakota generally has not been included in the topical heading, but rather is implied. The proper subdivision for other states and provinces is used. Entries for businesses which are a personal name have been inverted to file by the surname.
