=== Searching Newspapers.com === Searching and finding things on Newspapers.com is a bit of a skill. While this isn't a full tutorial on successful search, these tips might be helpful: * Put search terms in quotation marks to narrow results to the exact phrase. For example, the search term ''Mayor Keating architect'' will find newspaper pages that have all three words anywhere on the page; but ''"Mayor Keating" architect'' will only find pages that have the exact phrase "Mayor Keating," with the word "architect" also appearing on the page. * Add a date range to narrow down results. That can be exact dates, or it can just be a range of years (e.g., 1876-1899). * Add the location of "South Carolina" to narrow it down even farther. * Once you've done that search, you now have the ability to narrow it down to a specific newspaper; it is often helpful to limit results to Greenville papers.
