Event Description
Guest Speaker: Brittany Young from NewsBank
The Post Tribune created “full-text coverage” of their newspaper in November 1986, making the news keyword searchable. In 2018, the paper also added full color images. Learn how to search this database to find articles and stories about your relatives who lived in Gary and neighboring communities. We will also talk about the Post Tribune Obituary index that was created by the Lake County Public Library and learn how to find and request these obituaries.
Join us in person or through ZOOM.
