Neighborhood Newspapers of San Francisco Digital Scanning Project
a collaborative of SF neighborhood history groups comprised of:

Acción Latina
Bernal History Project
Potrero Hill Archives
Shaping San Francisco
Visitacion Valley History Project
Western Neighborhoods Project
Noe Valley Voice

and YOU?

We are community history groups in San Francisco who have come together to:

1) share resources around local history gathering and dissemination;
2) influence the discourse of local history;
3) amplify work done by local historians that is often isolated work; and
4) promote more collaboration around local history.

We identified several underutilized large collections of neighborhood history in the form of neighborhood newspapers—some now out of print—which we are working together with the Internet Archive to digitize and make available as historical resources. The papers we are working to scan and integrate into the collection are:
El Tecolote,
North Mission News,
Potrero View,
Grapevine,
Richmond ReView,
Tenderloin Times,
Noe Valley Voice, plus
New Bernal Journal,


View the collection of digitized newspapers, which is growing by the week!


See some examples of the collection, documenting the months after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake as they were experienced in the Tenderloin, Noe Valley, the Mission District, Visitacion Valley, Bernal Heights, the Richmond, and Potrero Hill.


Interested in volunteering your time with us to help scan and digitize? We also need help identifying the various topics covered in the newspaper articles and entering them as keyword metadata for the archival collection.

If you have a San Francisco neighborhood newspaper archive you would like us to consider including, let us know.

Please email us to find out how to get involved.
