Missouri Newspapers on Microfilm at the State Historical Society

Buchanan County

This is not a roll by roll listing; often a list of issues spans many rolls of microfilm and not every issue is indicated.

  • A (mostly) complete span of issues is indicated by a dash: "-", and only the beginning and ending dates are shown.
  • Gaps in our holdings, not the dates on each reel of microfilm, are indicated by a semi-colon: ";".
    •

See the fuller explanation of abbreviations.

To request microfilm through interlibrary loan (ILL), see our Interlibrary Loan Policy. When making a request, include the town of publication, title of the newspaper, and the date or time period needed.

If possible, current newspapers are linked to their Web sites.
