Periodicals Resources

Periodicals Department - Newspapers

The Richland County Public Library subscribes to more than 130 newspapers. In addition to newspapers from each South Carolina county, the collection includes newspapers from 51 major U.S. cities and five foreign cities as well as nine foreign language newspapers. You may view a list of these newspapers sorted by title or by location.

Except for The State, USA Today, Wall Street Journal and the Sunday Atlanta Journal Constitution, all newspapers are delivered through the U.S. Post Office, which means there will be a delay between the published date and date received by the library.

Current newspapers can be found in four towers next to the periodicals desk. Most newspapers are kept for one month in the hanging files adjacent to the periodicals desk; however, RCPL receives microfilm for several titles, including The State (1891- present) and the New York Times (1851- present). Periodicals Department personnel provide assistance with microfilm machines.

Current business related newspapers, including Barron’s, Wall Street Journal and Investor’s Business Daily, are located in the Business Reference Department on the third level. Back issues can be found in the Periodicals Department’s hanging files.
