The Past from the Press Exhibition on loan from the National Library Ireland. Newspapers are full of information that provides us with important primary evidence about the past. As with all historical evidence, there is more to a newspaper than first meets the eye. The Past from the Press explores issues such as news values, bias, subjectivity, and propaganda and encourages you to ‘read between the lines’ of historic and contemporary newspapers.
On display in The Source Library during Heritage Week 2025
