Stars and Stripes provides online access to the majority of its editions and years of publication through its digital archives. Patrons interested in years not available online can contact Stars and Stripes Library & Archives for assistance.
Digital Archives
Stars and Stripes makes many of its editions from 1942 - 1999 available through the Stars and Stripes Digital Archives.
The historic archives presently include editions from London, Northern Ireland, and the Mediterranean (Africa, Italy and the French Riviera) from 1942 - 1946, as well as the Europe and Pacific editions from 1948 - 1999. We are in the process of digitizing the remaining 1943 - 1947 editions and will add those editions to the historic archives as soon as they are completed.
Membership rates for the digital historic archives range from $4.95 for a single day, $7.95 per month, or $47.40 for an annual one. The historic archives are searchable by keyword and dates. Subscribers can also explore the content issue-by-issue, page-by-page.
