Abstract: The Museum News Clippings Scrapbooks consist of 29 volumes of newspaper clippings about the San Diego Natural History Museum,

The Museum News Clippings Scrapbooks consist of 29 volumes of newspaper clippings about the San Diego Natural History Museum,
those involved with the museum, and local science news. The 29 elephant folios collect articles that date from 1920-1994.
The volumes are labeled 1
to 30, but volumes one and three are combined into one binding. The collection includes
an index to volumes 1 through 17 (1920-1977).
The clippings collected in these scrapbooks were primarily published in local newspapers, including the
San Diego Union (1922-1992), the
Evening Tribune (1895-1939), and the
San Diego Sun (1908-1939). The Museum employed news clipping services to supply newspaper and magazine articles and notices of events from
many published sources, including newspapers in California and Arizona.
The collection is open to researchers by appointment. Contact the Research Library Director, San Diego Natural History Museum.
