From Cripple Creek to Grand Junction, the Colorado's Historic Newspaper Collection (CHNC) will help users get better acquainted with the history of the state. The funding for this digitization project came from a variety of sources, including the Collaborative Digitization Program, the Colorado Historical Society, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Currently, the archive contains materials from 117 newspapers from the years 1859 to 1930. All told, the Collection contains well over 394,000 digitized pages. New visitors to the site can search the archive by browsing around an interactive map of Colorado, or they can also perform a more detailed search. On the left-hand side of the homepage, visitors should also make use of the "Tips on Searching Historic Newspapers" section and the "Quick Guide to using CHNC".
