Newark News Still Lives - at Newark Library
The voluminous records of the Newark News -- the newspaper of record in New Jersey -- are still alive and serving New Jersey residents and researchers in the New Jersey Information Center of the Newark Public Library.
The Newark Public Library, under a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, gained possession of the Newark News morgue, including ancillary materials -- reporter's notes, etc -- and has made nearly all of the collection available on microfilm.
The Newark News files are ranked as one of the most important historical resources in the State of New Jersey, and a major contribution to the study and preservation of New Jersey history.
