As many of you know, a lot of our Florida Studies students use the bound green volumes of the Pinellas County Newspaper Index created by the Works Progress Administration. Digital images in JPG or PDF format are now available for these volumes through the Florida Heritage Project of FCLA at http://palmm.fcla.edu
Now students can access this valuable resource from the comfort of their homes. The volumes are valuable, but the layout within them is sometimes confusing (how many people born after 1970 have ever used the word “Necrology”?) and not all of the sources cited are in existence (i.e., some early issues of the Clearwater Sun never survived long enough to get microfilmed). I have used these sources frequently for many years and am glad to provide assistance if student need help with them. Please feel free to refer them to me.
