This collection of newspapers has been assembled over the years by the staff of the Schomburg Center. This collection includes issues of black newspapers (foreign and domestic) which have been retained as representative samples of these publications. In most cases the issues which appear here are the only ones held by the Center. In other cases, however, the Schomburg has scattered or incomplete files in its newspaper collection or on microfilm. The newspapers included here are only selected samples. They do not reflect either the quantity or the diversity of the Schomburg Center's newspaper holdings. less
