The 1995 list of African Newspapers Currently Received by American Libraries (by Mette Shayne) is on the Northwestern Africana Library site: http://www.library.nwu.edu/africana/resources/crlnews.html
This list is still quite valuable as titles coming in 1995 may not be on the 1996 list, but the library may still have the older issues.
