Newspapers Database

Jensen Memorial Library recently transferred several years of Minden newspapers to a searchable digital format. “The Workman” (predecessor to the Minden Courier) is available for years 1890-1893 and “The Minden Courier” is available for years 1893-1952.
Start searching yourself today! Or contact the library to schedule a one-on-one tutorial.
Access the archives by going to: https://jensenmemorialne.advantage-preservation.com/
The library plans to transfer the remainder of the Minden Courier archives to digital as funds allow. To contribute to the project, please contact the library.
