Sale of Newspapers
- Can I buy a back issue of a newspaper?
Every day thirty copies of Gleaner newspapers are delivered to the Archive. They are sold on a first come first serve basis until all but the preservation copies are gone.
- What does it cost to buy a back issue of a newspaper?
Papers up to three months old are sold at the current rate that is printed on the page. If the publications are over three months old, a surcharge is added.
The IS Department does not set the price rates for the sale of newspapers and does not take orders for newspapers. To purchase a newspaper, refer inquiries to Mrs. Geneva Rodgers in the Circulation Department, (876) 922-3400 to 9 ext. 256.
- How far back do you keep newspapers?
The Gleaner Company keeps a physical preservation copy of The Gleaner and The Star as far back as 1968. These preservation copies are not for sale. The Gleaner Company has a microfilm copy of The Gleaner back to 1834, when it began publication. Although the collection is incomplete, we are working to fill the gaps. You can also visit http://gleaner.newspaperarchive.com for pdf versions of the microfilmed pages.
