About

The California Digital Newspaper Collection (CDNC) needs your help today!

For over two decades the CDNC has preserved and provided access to invaluable historical records, capturing California's rich and diverse stories.

In these uncertain budgetary times, we invite you to join the University of California in assuring the long-term preservation and access of this incomparable resource that documents our State’s history, culture, and people.

Currently, the CDNC faces a $300,000 deficit with only weeks left in the fiscal year which ends on June 30, 2025. Without urgent support, access to this collection could be significantly reduced for researchers around the world.

Every dollar counts. Your donation today will ensure continued access to key documents, safeguarding California’s past for future generations.

Thank you for standing with us in this urgent fight to preserve the California Digital Newspaper Collection’s access for all.
