Historical Arizona Newspapers Throughout its existence, the Library has subscribed to all known Arizona newspapers and has retained the newspapers for historical purposes. Once a newspaper ceases to be published or is available on microfilm, it is housed in the Arizona History and Archives Division.
Arizona Newspaper Project (ANP) In partnership with the United States Newspaper Project at the Library of Congress and the National Endowment for the Humanities, library staff located, cataloged and microfilmed newspapers throughout the state as part of Arizona Newspaper Project (ANP) and many titles are available through interlibrary loan.
Searching for Records of Arizona Newspapers Bibliographic records of specific newspapers can be searched by title in the Library and Archives' online catalog, e.g., enter Tombstone Epitaph and then select the "Periodical Title" option. Or, if a specific title is not known, the newspaper can be searched by geographic location with the subject newspapers, e.g., enter "Tombstone (Ariz) newspapers" and then select the "Subject" option.
