Genealogy Program Meeting (Faraday Center)

Researching Newspapers Outside of Newspapers.com

Presented by Amber Oldenburg

Speaker will present remotely / Presentation will be recorded

The availability of digitized newspapers continues to grow each day and now researchers can find thousands of newspapers on sites outside of websites like Newspapers.com. This presentation will explore the numerous sites and archives that make newspapers easily accessible for little to no cost.

This presentation will showcase sites that make newspapers available to researchers for free or very little cost, such as Advantage Archives and Chronicling America, as well as the resources for newspaper research available at local FamilySearch Centers and archives. Attendees will walk away armed with a wide array of resources to begin tracing their family history in newspapers.

The Genealogy Program Meeting is a partnership program between Carlsbad City Library and the North San Diego County Genealogical Society. This program features speakers with expertise on various issues relating to genealogy.

The program is held the fourth Tuesday of the month from January through November and is presented in person and virtually.
