Papers of Interest
The Scholars Advisory Committee recommended starting the digitization project with major city and selected national newspapers. They noted the advantage of comparing local or regional perspectives to the national story. The list below started with diocesan newspapers in major US cities, the National Catholic Reporter and the Catholic News Service historic newsfeeds, and has expanded over time along with the number of Digitizing Partners. The goal is to digitize all years for all papers. We work closely with our Digitizing Partners on securing permissions and funds to develop and maintain the Catholic News Archive.
Do you want to propose a paper?
Catholic sources of news, opinion and information published in North America such as news wire bulletins, news magazines, and newsletters, as well as diocesan, lay and student newspapers, are in scope for the Catholic News Archive. To propose a paper or offer assistance, check out How You Can Help and contact Todd Jensen, Project Manager, Catholic News Archive, or Jennifer Younger, Executive Director, CRRA.
