Searching for Newspaper Pages
The website has two search options available from the blue search bar: Search Pages
and Advanced Search. The search bar stays with you as you move throughout the site,
so that no matter where you are, you can start a new search.
Search Pages (Basic Search)
Type your search terms into the white search box and click on GO or press enter to
search. You can limit your search results to newspapers from a particular state or year
range using the limiters in the light blue drop-down boxes.
Advanced Search
Click on the Advanced Search tab for more ways to limit your search and exclude
results from states, papers and time periods that are irrelevant to your search from the
very beginning.
9. Nevada Digital Newspaper Project • https://nvdnp.wordpress.com

SearchingChroniclingAmerica|2/10/2016
• Select State(s): Select all states, one state or more than one but fewer than all (use
CTRL + left-click to highlight more than one state).
• Or Select Newspaper(s): Select all newspapers, one newspaper, or more than one but
fewer than all (use CTRL + left-click to highlight more than one newspaper title).
• Select Year(s): Use the drop-down menus to select a single year or year range.
• Or Date Range: Input MM/DD/YYYY to limit your results to a specific day, month, etc.
**Tip: If you’re looking at a certain day that an event occurred, it’s probably a good
idea to expand y our search parameters to a week or two around that date (news
traveled slower than today and a lot of papers were published once a week.**
• Limit Search: Select to view results from only front pages or a specific page number.
• Language: Select an option from the drop-down menu.
Enter Search
The search boxes at the bottom of the Advanced Search page give you more options
to look for terms. This section allows you to diversify your search terms and narrow in
results. **Remember to separate your search terms using a comma.
• with any of the words: You can diversify keywords. Any words types here will be pulled
by the OCR technology. This can be particularly useful when you know that a search
term might have various names. For example, if somebody wanted to search for
photographs they may want to enter general terms: photographs, pictures,
10. Nevada Digital Newspaper Project • https://nvdnp.wordpress.com

SearchingChroniclingAmerica|2016-02-10
photography. And the results would be newspapers containing the words
“photographs, OR pictures, OR photography”
• with all of the words: This will include ALL of the words in the search box; that will have to
show up on the page in order for it to be shown in the results. This is helpful if you are
searching for a person, business, or event. Limit the terms you type in this box – the more
you enter, the less relevant the results. Example: If I know that the company name was
Silver Bow Mining and Milling Company, I would type in the search box Silver, Bow. And
the results would be newspapers containing the words “Silver, AND Bow”
• with the phrase (helpful for looking for specific quotations, sayings, place names and
people names). Example: Nevada is known as the “Battle Born State” because it
achieved statehood during the Civil War. By searching Battle, Born the results are
newspapers that contain the phrase “Battle, born” with relevant results being in
Nevada newspapers.
• with the words...within 5/10/50/100 words of each other: proximity searches are helpful
for finding articles about a particular topic when you aren’t sure of the word order.
Note: When selecting your search terms, it’s important to be aware of historical
vocabulary differences: often, words we use today to describe people, places and
events of the past are not the same as the ones people living during that time – those
people who were reading and writing the news – would have used. For example, the
country we know today as Thailand was called Siam until 1939. If you did a search for
Thailand in Chronicling America, you would get few or no relevant results. Use the
search term Siam to get the results you want.
Other search tips to keep in mind to get the most out of this resource:
• use limiters such as state and date
• use many words to characterize the topic you are searching
• too many results? use more specific terms
• too few results? use alternate terms or broader subjects and relax limits
Search Results
Your search results will appear as a gallery of mini-newspaper pages (thumbnails),
sorted by Relevance. Your search terms will be highlighted in pink and remain
highlighted when viewing a larger version of the image. A search result’s relevancy is
determined by how often your search terms appear on a page and how close those
search terms are to one another.

You have the option to sort your results by State, Title and Date, and you can also view
your results as a List. The list view takes out the images and provides the title of the
paper, date of issue and image (page) number on which your search terms appear.
Switch between views by selecting the Gallery (thumbnail) and List links in the top right
corner of your results.
Once your search results appear you can also check the box next to Show only front
pages to see which results made front page news.

Digital Newspaper Collections
Rebel Yell Digital Collection: UNLV University Libraries -
http://digital.library.unlv.edu/rebelyell
• On April 20, 1955, The Rebel Yell made its debut as Nevada Southern's student
newspaper, its headline announcing the opening of the campus social season, the
Confederate Cotillion. Since then, The Rebel Yell has provided what its founding editors
promised: "The paper stands to serve the students, and will try to fulfill every need. Its
pages will contain news of every type – varying from feature articles to campus
happenings."
• This project captures over 30,000 pages of The Rebel Yell from its inaugural issue in 1956
through 2010, at which point it went online and is available on its own website with its
own digital archive. The issues from 1955 through 1986 were digitized from microfilm and
are in black and white, while issues from 1987 to 2010 were digitized from the original
copies and include color.
Southern Nevada Jewish Heritage Project: UNLV University Libraries -
http://d.library.unlv.edu/cdm/search/collection/jhp/searchterm/newspapers/field/coll
ec/mode/all/conn/and/order/nosort
• The project launched in July 2014 when the UNLV University Libraries received a one-
year grant through the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA), funded by the
Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and administered by the Nevada State
Library and Archives. Within the first year, the UNLV University Libraries worked with
community partners to collect and digitize oral histories and historical documents.
Henderson Home News: Henderson Public Library -
https://www.mypubliclibrary.com/catalog/library/userdef/dc_homenews.aspx
• Originally published as a supplement in the Boulder City News, Henderson Home News
became a separate publication in 1951. Like many local newspapers, Henderson Home
News chronicles the life and growth of a city in ways that larger newspapers cannot.
This local focus and the fact that the area had been significantly populated for only 9
years in 1951 means that Henderson Home News traces a nearly complete history of
Henderson’s development. This digital collection includes almost every issue of the
Henderson Home News, including the supplemental issues published in the Boulder City
News in 1949 and 1950 as well as the stand-alone issues published in and after 1951.

• Cooperative Library Automated Network (CLAN) takes advantage of sharing resources
and revenues, making it economically feasible to do more together than any one
library could ever afford to do on its own. CLAN provides access to all the resources of
all the member of CLAN through shared informational databases, interlibrary loan, on-
line catalogs, and other web-based services in Nevada. The newspapers currently in
the collection are:
o Daily Territorial Enterprise

Nevada Digital Collections Portal –
http://omeka.library.unlv.edu/omeka/items/browse/tag/newspapers
• Through this effort, the Nevada State Library and Archives, in conjunction with
representatives from the library, archive and museum communities, and other
interested allied information providers, have developed a statewide digital plan
intended to guide the development of Nevada’s digital collections. The statewide
digital plan provides a framework for the development and implementation of
Nevada’s digital library and archives, with a shared vision and responsibility to preserve,
protect, and make the states' unique heritage available. One desired outcome of the
initial work was the stated goal to "Provide online access to digital collections held by
Nevada cultural heritage organizations and allied information providers that are
distributed throughout Nevada." This portal is intended to serve as a common gateway
to various digital collections hosted throughout Nevada's libraries, archives, museums,
and allied information providers.
