As part of its mission to make the past accessible and promote understanding of the past, the Greater Harrington Historical Society has digitized a Harrington newspaper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weekly, the Harrington Journal, runs from 1933 to 1998, and visitors to the museum’s webpage have free access to high-quality online images that brought hometown news to the community each week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To access the newspaper, follow this link to the Harrington Journal.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you are checking out the page, consider donating to the museum. A grant from the Delaware Humanities funded this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Harrington Journal started publishing in 1913 after Frank Thomas Fleming purchased an earlier weekly, the Harrington Enterprise. The year 2020 saw the end of the town’s paper, as corporate owners, who had purchased it years earlier, shut it down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks, Harrington Historical Society, for creating greater access to the past. Developing ways to give a broader community open access to history is an important mission for heritage groups in the 21st century.<\/p>\n\n\n
