Digitization of this collection is a great asset for historians, researchers, and genealogists searching for local information about Gallipolis and Gallia County. Prior to this, searching the newspapers required a trip to the Library to search and view the microfilmed newspaper collection.
Researchers can take advantage of this new and exciting technology but are also reminded that they can still access the microfilmed copies of the newspapers at the Library. In addition to the newspapers listed above, the Library maintains a microfilmed collection that includes the Gallipolis Journal (1825-1918), Gallipolis Bulletin (1868-1918), and the Gallia Times (1913-1946).

Bossard Library would like to thank our community members whose support enables the Library to provide these Digital Archives, funded through the Library's Technology Fund. We would also like to express appreciation to the publisher of the Gallipolis Daily Tribune for granting permission for the digitization and indexing of the Tribune.
