A Guide to the Collections of
The Humanities & Social Sciences Library

The newspaper collection of The Research Libraries of The New York Public Library brings the whole world, present and past, under your eyes: from the Bradford’s New-York Gazette (the first paper published in New York City in 1725) to the Yiddish Forverts, from the Denver Post to the South China Morning Post. It is an outstanding collection of free and easy-to-use primary sources available to all users.

This guide focuses on the holdings of the Humanities & Social Sciences Library. Titles held by the other three NYPL research libraries are not included here; however, they can be searched in CATNYP, the online catalog of the Research Libraries. Refer to the location field in CATNYP to determine where your material is held. (See Using the Library’s Catalog in this guide.)
