"This experience has led the writer to wonder if any real progress is being made in the organization and use of newspaper libraries and, after enrollment in library school, to check systematically the professional literature having to do with newspaper libraries. The result of this investigation is this paper, the purpose of which is to find out just what some newspapers are doing to promote and encourage newspaper libraries. Because, it seems, most newspapers of circulations under 50,000 have no newspaper librarians or libraries at all (except for a stack of reference books in a corner), this brief study of newspaper libraries is limited, for the most part, to large-circulation dailies. For this reason, the contents of this paper represent the brighter side of the newspaper library field"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "August, 1954." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: Robert G. Clapp, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 89-92).
