Citing newspapers

Newspaper titles freqeuntly changed and sometimes weekly, daily, and evening editions coexisted making it difficult to identify correct titles in text and citations. Use the Library of Congress U.S. Newspaper Directory 1690-Present to determine the correct title for your citation. Below is the fomat for the notes with examples.

    1. [Author if identified], [Headline in quotes], [Newspaper in italics (first mention identify location)], [Month (spelled out) Day, Year].
    
    1. Carol McGraw, "Security Boosted at City Offices," Gazette (Colorado Springs), February 2, 2013.

Omit the author and headline if not available.

    2. Out West (Colorado Springs), March 23, 1872.
