Newspapers in our collection

Don't you love the experience of picking up an old newspaper and reading about the

 news of the day ?  We sure do!   While many old newspapers are available on the Library of Congress' Chronicling America site, or on the subscription based www.newspapers.com, some papers are not on these sites.  And, we feel viewing the actual newspaper and reading the headlines and local stories certainly takes you back in time and provides for a more authentic experience.  For these reasons, we are pleased to have papers in our collection.


The Carson City Community Archive, has within its collection, many old Carson City newspapers.  Selected issues in the years listed below are part of our collection.  Contact us for more information on the issues available and for research access or information.  


We welcome donations from the community of local old newspapers for addition
