If you know the title of a particular newspaper or periodical you would like to search, you can use Oxy OneSearch.

Note that if you want to see what foreign language newspapers are available through Oxy, whether in print or via one of our subscription databases, type "newspapers" into Oxy OneSearch and then using the filters on the left hand side of the page:

1. Go to Resource Type and scroll down until you find "newspapers."  Check the box on the left and click "apply filters."
2. Then, go to the Language filter and select the language you want the paper to be written in and click "apply filters.

Other databases to try:

Not all databases provide the entire range of a newspaper's publication dates. Sometimes, you will need to access older articles on microfilm (film reels) or microform (transparent cards). Oxy has a number of newspapers on microform, some of which are listed below. The microfilm reading machine is located on the main floor of the Academic Commons.

Microform of newspapers not at Oxy can be ordered via Interlibrary Loan (ILL).

1. Search for the title of the newspaper in OxyOneSearch

2. Go to the filter on the left side of the page "Resource Type" and click the box to the left of "Newspapers."

3. Open the record for the newspaper that contains microfilm or microform

4. Click Get it for me from other libraries.  This should automatically take you to the Interlibrary Loan request page.  If not, then follow the instructions in the ILL guide.
