The German-American press was the most extensive of any immigrant group, and many German-American newspapers continue to this day. The Library of Congress holds comprehensive collections of these newspapers, many of which have been digitized and can be read online. To gain an overview of these holdings, click here. The Chronicling of America project provides full-text searchable access to many of the Library's German-American newspapers; an overview of the history of the German-American press and its role in the project can be found here.
