Newspaper Archive Account Setup Instructions 

Newspaper Archive now requires a user account to access its database. You only need your library card barcode and email address to create an account. If you do not have an email address and would like help setting one up, please contact our Emerging Technologies Department by visiting or calling the John McIntire Library at 740.453.0391 Ext 150.
