This engaging project from the Carnegie Mellon University Libraries archives over one hundred years of Jewish newspapers published in Pittsburgh such as the Jewish Criterion, the American Jewish Outlook, and the Jewish Chronicle. It's worth noting that the first Jews in Pittsburgh consisted of a small community of German immigrants who came to the area in the 1840s. It was not until 1895 when the first English-language Jewish newspaper (the Criterion) was first published and they began extensive coverage of events throughout the Jewish community. Visitors can use the Browse tab to look around for specific volumes of interest or to search all of the newspapers here by keyword or publication date. It's a great way to learn about Pittsburgh's history and one of the Steel City's most vital groups of citizens.
