Q. How do I find newspapers on microfilm in McWherter Library?

The Classic catalog will help you to identify the newspapers we own. Please fill out the Microform Request - Libraries - The University of Memphis form once it has been determined that we own the newspaper. After, filling out the Microform Request form the microfilm requested will be available in three business days. If you have any additional questions, please email or call the Circulation desk at lib_circ@memphis.edu or 901.678.2205.

For Faculty/Staff/Students. In the event that the newspaper is not owned by the McWherter library, it can be requested through Interlibrary Loan. The requested materials will be delivered electronically to your UofM email. This service is not available for community members.
