Frederick Douglass' Newpapers Now Available in the Library


MCC Libraries are pleased to announce that we have won first prize in the National Archive Publishing Company’s microfilm sweepstakes! As our prize, we were able to choose $5,000 worth of microfilm from the company’s products.

We are very excited to report that we have acquired Frederick Douglass’ abolitionist newspaper The North Star (1847 – 1851) and Frederick Douglass’ Monthly (1859 – 1863) as part of our winnings. Both papers were published here in Rochester.

The remainder of our winnings was used to expand our microfilm holdings of Newsweek.

If you have any questions, please contact Lori Annesi, Reference/Special Collections Librarian ( <<mailto:lannesi@monroecc.edu>>).
