Formatted Contents Note:
"This book contains a checklist of African American newspapers identified in more than one hundred resources. These sources include not only newspaper annual advertising directories, union lists, and finding aids, but also African American bibliographies, yearbooks, and several specifically African American newspaper sources. This book is not a union list of newspapers, which lists available issues (long runs or individual issues) of specific papers and the repositories that house them. Although the source codes may clues to repositories, the search for specific individual issues is left to the researcher. Listed within are 5,539 newspapers and assorted periodicals that have served Americans of African descent ... These newspapers have been owned, published, edited, and/or read predominantly by African Americans and have been identified in forty-four states and the District of Columbia" -- Introd.
