Palm Beach Post Microfilm Collection

Palm Beach Post Microfilm

The Palm Beach Post has been the local newspaper in the area since it was established in 1910. Today, at the Mandel Public Library, we house their microfilm collection, spanning from 1916 to 2016. The Palm Beach Post Archive donated this collection during their reorganization.

We have a microfilm reader available for patrons to view our microfilm collection.

Scope and Content

The Palm Beach Post Microfilm Collection is a comprehensive newspaper collection that also includes a small section of microfilm from the West Palm Beach City Directories and Volume 1 – 23 of Florida Historical Quarterly. The finding aid for the archival materials is organized by type and then further sorted by date.
