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.
Database listing of newspapers held in U.S. libraries. Site hosted by CAMP,

year delinquency. For more information about the status of LC filmed titles,
check the Collation Record File in the newspaper processing area. http://lcweb.loc.gov/rr/news/formicro.html
