91�ֿ�

Have a question about something or someone you remember from your time at 91�ֿ�? Here’s some help to find an answer. A five-year process to digitize every printed issue of The Daily 91�ֿ�r (now The 91�ֿ�r) concluded this summer. Ninety years of issues, spanning 1926–2016, are now searchable at .

“Newspaper gets really brittle over time, says Virginia Dressler, digital projects librarian at the University Libraries. “By digitizing this and putting up an online archive, we’re saving the original print.” 

Plus, the opportunity to do keyword searching speeds up research that once took hours. “You can put in somebody’s name, or an event you knew happened,” says Cara Gilgenbach, head of Special Collections and Archives. “I think alumni, in particular, are using it as a walk down memory lane.”
