L 23 Customer Service Guide

Introduction

This finding aid (L 23) contains a complete inventory of original newspaper holdings of

the Archives of Ontario for newspapers published in the province of Ontario and its

predecessors, Upper Canada and Canada West, which are not on microfilm. The finding

aid also includes an inventory of the Archives holdings for all newspapers on microfilm,

regardless of place of publication. The microfilm series for these newspapers are

prefixed by an "N" code. Please consult the newspaper card catalogue in the Main

Reading Room for detailed descriptions of individual reel contents of newspapers on

microfilm, and for the reel numbers of mastheads listed here. Historical introductions

and tables of contents for the newspapers on microfilm are filed by "N" number in

Appendices "A" to "C" of the Newspapers Collection Inventory. Column eight in

Appendices A4 and A5 indicates whether an introduction is available (?) or not (X) for

newspapers under a specific "N" number. These introductions are usually on the first

reel of each microfilm series.

Original Newspapers are listed alphabetically by masthead (Appendix A1), then by place

(Appendix A2), with the exception of Toronto, which is catalogued separately (Appendix

A3). Newspapers on Microfilm are listed sequentially by the "N" catalogue number for

the film series (Appendix A4), then by place of publication, followed by masthead and

date range order (Appendix A5). NB: the definite article ¡°The¡± has been omitted from the

Masthead listings and the community¡¯s name has usually been deleted, if it is the same

as the one in the "Place of Publication" column.

The ¡°Pub¡± column refers to the frequency of publication, and is outlined as follows:

¡°BM¡± = bi-monthly

¡°BW¡± = bi-weekly

¡°D¡± = daily

¡°M¡± = monthly

"2M" = twice monthly

¡°Q¡± = quarterly

¡°SW¡± = semi weekly

"SM" = semi-monthly

¡°TW¡± = tri weekly

¡°W¡± = weekly

¡°Y¡± = yearly

The ¡°Dates¡± column indicates the outside dates of the publication, and the following

abbreviations have been used to indicate the months: Ja / F / Mr / Ap/ My/ Je/ Jy / Ag/

S/ O/ N/ D. The ¡°Run¡± column indicates the exact begin and end dates or issues in the

holdings of the Archives of Ontario. There may be gaps for issues of the years in the

"Dates" column, which can be determined from the card catalogue or the Tables of

Contents in the microfilm Introductions.

Column 2 in Appendices A4 and A5 shows the total "# of reels" containing the run for a

specific masthead in that "N" film series. Appendices A4 and A5 also indicate in the last

column whether a reproduction negative is available to duplicate the entire reel (N), or

whether only a positive duplicate print exists in our holdings (P). The Archives of Ontario

cannot make duplications of whole reels for which it does not hold the negatives.

For detailed descriptions of original and microfilmed Non-Ontario Newspapers at the

Archives of Ontario, consult the red binder Appendices (Vol. 1 and Vol. 2) of the

Newspapers Collection Inventory and the card catalogue.

How to Use This Index

If you know the name of the newspaper, check Appendix A1 which is organized by name

of masthead. If you don¡¯t know the specific newspaper you are looking for, or know the

place where it was published, go to Appendix A2 or Appendix A5. These are listings by

geographical place. If you are looking for an original Toronto newspaper, see Appendix

A3. If you need a breakdown of the holdings of a specific "N" microfilm series, consult

Appendix 4.

If you have found a newspaper run with an assigned "N" number, you may consult the

catalogue cards for the exact reel number of a specific run or masthead. The catalogue

cards are arranged by place of publication, then by masthead. These microfilms are

available through our self-service microfilm area

To submit a request for an original, please cite "Original Newspaper," name of the paper

and Container reference (listed in the far right column, when known) on request slips

when ordering original material into the Main Reading Room. Original copies of

newspapers on microfilm (Appendices A4 and A5) are not available for retrieval to the

Main Reading Room.
