the Cleveland Press Collection
from the Special Collections at CSU
      The Cleveland Press Collection was the former editorial library, or "morgue," of The Cleveland Press and now includes hundreds of thousands of clippings and photographs. The last of Cleveland's daily afternoon newspapers, The Cleveland Press was published from 1878 until 1982.
      Little survives from the first half-century and the collection's coverage of local and national history gets progressively stronger after 1920. The library was donated to the Cleveland State University Library in 1984 by the newspaper's owner, Joseph E. Cole, who was then a CSU Trustee.
