For anyone interested in the
history or genealogy of Door County,
the Door County Library Newspaper
Archive is a wonderful resource.
Thanks to grants from the Door County
Library Foundation and the Maihaugen
Foundation, along with help from the
Door County Advocate, historic local
newspapers have been digitized and are
available on Internet at
http://doorcountynewspapers.org.
And thanks go too to the County of Door
for hosting the newspapers on a county
server. No longer are researchers limited
to sharing the microfilm reader
located in the Laurie History Room of
the Door County Library in Sturgeon
Bay. This archive, which first went
online in the summer of 2012 and
included newspapers published
between 1862 and 1923, is available
to view throughout the world. And
according to analytic data, it's had
viewers from as far away as Norway,
Great Britain, Belgium, New Zealand,
India and more. In December of
2013 the collection was expanded to
include newspapers published
through 1941.
The Door County Library Newspaper
Archive is organized into collections
of the 12 newspaper titles published
between 1862 and 1941.
