Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers: Updated Advanced Search

You are subscribed to Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers from the Library of Congress. Updated Advanced Search Chronicling America is in the process of transitioning from the legacy Chronicling America interface to a new Chronicling America interface and back-end search infrastructure. Read more about it. Through its enhanced search interface, the new Chronicling America offers more options to search the collection than the old Chronicling America. Due to the feedback we've received about the new interface, we have permanently opened the Advanced Search box to make it more visible to users. The following is an updated guide on how to use the Advanced Search. On the new Chronicling America interface, the simple search is available at the top of every page within this digital collection. Note "This Collection" is automatically populated in the top search bar on the "About this Collection" page.     To access the new Advanced Search, click on the "Collection Items" tab. The Advanced Search is automatically open. Click the "-" button to minimize it and the "+" button to make it reappear again.   In the Advanced Search, you can search by title, issue, or page. Select "Pages" to search within the full text of the collection's newspapers and to filter by language. You can still do multiple types of keyword searches and narrow your search by State/Province, County, City, and Title. For example, if you want to search only Arkansas titles, select "Arkansas" from the "State/Province" drop-down menu and only Arkansas titles will appear in the "Title" field. You can also narrow the new advanced search by ethnicity, such as African American, German, or Polish, and narrow your search by date.   Once you hit "Search," you can further narrow your results using the facets on the left sidebar, for example, by title, date, county, or ethnicity. This is a new feature that the old interface was not able to do.   Try out a search in the new Chronicling America interface today!   The Chronicling America historic newspapers online collection is a product of the National Digital Newspapers Program and jointly sponsored by the Library and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
