Current African newspapers are in Green Library,

To see holdings records for the latest issues, go to the Newspaper Registration site and click on Newspapers. Put in the paper's name in the Search box. The very latest issues are held in the Information Center Newspaper section (and are not listed in Socrates).
Some African newspapers are treated like Magazines / Jounals (for example Namibia Economist)
and current issues will be in the Current Periodicals
section, Information Center, first floor, Green
Library.
FOR OLDER ISSUES, check all three sources.
1. see SOCRATES, Stanford’s online catalog.
2. check the Hoover Newspaper Catalog
(or, for newspapers treated as SERIALS, see the
Periodicals Catalog), in the Reference Room,
Hoover Tower. Some newspaper on film may only be listed in the Hoover Newspaper Catalog.
3. see the spreadsheet list of newspapers in SAL-Newark. These newspapers have not been cataloged fully and the holdings information may not be completely accurate.
Titles not listed as Air Mail come by Sea Mail
and may be 3-6 months old.
Titles designated Microfilm Only are only on
microfilm and will also be several months old.
For newspapers on the web, see Africa South of the Sahara - Newspapers by Country
