The Value of Newspaper Information
News happens everywhere, from Rock Hill to Charlotte to towns and cities near and far. For hundreds of years, newspapers have provided and preserved detailed records of a locale's people, institutions, issues and events.
In addition to the print newspapers available in the library, NewsBank, which is available on the library website under the "Articles" link, provides our college community with a comprehensive online list of local, regional, national and international newspaper coverage.
