Database Description:
This database contains 828 indexed articles (436 which are provided in full-text) which appeared between 1831 and 1855 in William Garrison's abolitionist newspaper The Liberator. These articles were chosen as potentially useful to the research of civic engagement through voluntary assocations among both African-American and white Bostonians during the antebellum period. The resulting database is provided to complement our biographical database of African Americans in Beacon Hill and the West End, 1848-1853.

Credits:
The original index by compiled by Uri Lafontant (BHS class of 2003). Full-text page images were scanned by Jessica Moody (class of 2004), and Nicholas Spellman (class of 2004).

Searching Help:
You can find a listing for all of the articles (both cataloged and digitized) by typing in a specific year (1831-1851). The digitized articles appear in bold print. For example, see the results of typing in "1843" .

You can search by name of author, word in the title, and date. Make sure to use '+' and/or '-' when searching by more than one word. For example: '+adelphic +union +library +association' returns more relevant results than 'adelphic union library association'.

'INDEX PAGE' refers to compilation of 456 articles in binders at the Beverly High School Library.
