Norwalk Chronicler

How to cite

Cite the original newspaper or book first; the Chronicler and the archive are where you found it.

A newspaper page

“Article headline,” Norwalk Gazette (Norwalk, Conn.), July 5, 1859, p. 2. Digitized by the Connecticut Digital Archive; accessed via Norwalk Chronicler, https://norwalkocr.com/page/…

Use the headline if the article has one; otherwise describe it in plain words (e.g. “Notice of oyster supper, Baptist Tabernacle Society”). Always check the scan before quoting — the OCR text is not reliable enough to quote from on its own. Every page view has a Cite this page link that fills this in for you.

A book

Charles M. Selleck, Norwalk (Norwalk, Conn., 1896), p. …. Internet Archive scan; accessed via Norwalk Chronicler.

Take the page number from the book’s own scan at the Internet Archive; the reading pages on this site are not the book’s pages.

An answer from Ask

Don’t. Cite the clippings Ask pointed you to, after reading them.
