Mary, Where are the old newspapers housed? In Springfield? Do they have the Granite City Press-Record? Alice

Newspaper are housed at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library which also houses the IL Historic Preservation. I don't know if they have Granite City. Here is a link to the Library newspaper area which also has a telephone number. You can call them and ask what they have in their collection. http://www.alplm.org/library/library_depts.html#Newspaper Sorry I don't know more.
