HIST 160: Understanding the past through newspapers  

Search CONSORT by Title or Journal Title. Many newspapers are now available digitally, though some are still only available on microfilm or in print and will require the use of an index. Indexes are generally located on the second floor of Chalmers library, near Helpline. Don't forget to look at the subject headings associated with a particular paper. For example:

• Beijing (China) -- Newspapers
• China -- Newspapers
• China -- Periodicals
• East Asia -- Periodicals
• Guangzhou (China) -- Newspapers
• Tokyo (Japan) -- Newspapers

In addition to CONSORT, don't forget to search OhioLINK, WorldCat, and the Center for Research Libraries' catalog. We are a member of CRL and have special borrowing arrangements.

If you're unfamiliar with these topics, do some background research.
