Some newspapers publish their own bound indexes.
These indexes are particularly useful for historical research. They help to find a particular article in a paper, and also determine the date an event occurred. Once the date is known, information in other sources often can be located. On the other hand, if you are interested in more current news, it would be more practical to explore an online database. Full text coverage of all editorial content of each issue of the Final Edition of the Los Angeles Time is available from January1,1985 to date New York Times .
