The Personal Name Index to The New York Times Index is an index to the volumes of the New York Times Index , rather than to the newspaper itself. References are to the date and page of the index volumes. The Personal Name Index covers the years 1851-1989. Current print issues of newspapers from around the world, including major U.S. titles, are located on the lower level of Olin Library. Newspapers from 20 Asian countries are available in the Severinghaus Asia Reading Room of Kroch Library.
Newspapers are available in print form until they are superseded by microfilm.
The microfilm is located in the microform stack area, also on the lower level of Olin Library. To determine whether we own the newspaper you want, search the title in the CU Library Catalog. Keep in mind that many current newspapers are available in full text through one of the sources mentioned earlier. If you do not find the title you want, please ask for assistance at the reference desk in Olin Library. In November of 1998, the Collection Development Division began to publish a compilation of citations and brief reviews to materials recently added to the Olin stacks.
