The Library has extensive microfilm runs and indexes for recent years of the two leading newspapers in Vermont.
The Library's collection guide to newspapers contains a list of about 20 additional discontinued Vermont newspapers for which we have partial runs on microfilm and in print. Runs of additional Vermont newspapers are available in paper at the Sheldon Museum and in microfilm at the Ilsley Public Library in town.
