Newspaper Sources
The following are the newspapers often cited at TCS and the abbreviations we use. Many underwent name changes in their publishing history and this can be confusing. We have attempted to represent the masthead names as accurately as possible and these are grouped together below for the same paper. In most cases, long-running papers like the Hartford Courant are microfilmed or digitized in one continuous series under the primary title. Many of these newspapers are also available at the Connecticut State Library or other public and academic libraries and historical societies across the state.
