The Cooperative Africana Microform Project has completed microfilming a collection of seven newspapers from Liberia. Michigan State University collected the issues, which include such titles as New Liberia, Heritage, and Informer from Monrovia, the nation's capital. The microfilm is now available on interlibrary loan from CRL.
