FINDING ARTICLES FROM HAWAII NEWSPAPERS

 

When you search in the online newspapers, remember to put phrases in quotation marks, e.g.: "alien species" or “water rights.”  You usually don't have to include the word "Hawaii" as part of your search term, since these are local newspapers and most of the articles will be about Hawaii.

STAR-ADVERTISER   http://staradvertiser.com   

The Star-Advertiser has a search box in the upper-right corner of its Web pages.  It will ONLY search for articles written since the Star-Advertiser began, which is June 7, 2010.  (On their Archives page, there is a way to search for older articles from the Honolulu Advertiser or the Star-Bulletin, but you have to pay for them.)

The Star-Advertiser has links at the top and bottom of each article for putting articles into printer-friendly format or to email them. 

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A PARTICULAR DAY'S PAPER:

On the Archives page of the Honolulu Star-Advertiser are links to back issues of both the Honolulu Advertiser and the Star-Bulletin, as well as back issues of the Star-Advertiser itself.  Click on the "Archive" link under the search box (or on the "Back Issues" link under the "Home" tab at the top).  Or go to http://www.staradvertiser.com/archives.

The back issues of the Honolulu Advertiser go back to 2001, and the back issues of the Star-Bulletin go back to 1996.

HONOLULU WEEKLY   http://honoluluweekly.com

The Honolulu Weekly does not have a search engine of its own.  However, you can search in it as follows: 
Go to Google and click on Advanced Search. 
On the Advanced Search page, down in the Domain section, type honoluluweekly.com.
Enter your search term/s at the top.

Note: The Honolulu Weekly does not have any printer-friendly or email links.

The Honolulu Weekly also keeps some back issues on their Web site.  They don't keep full back issues, but they have a section where they keep their cover stories from past issues.  From the “News” pull-down menu at the top, select “Cover Stories” – they are listed in reverse chronological order.

Note: Not ALL the articles in the print papers are in the online versions—but almost all locally written stories are, and some mainland or international newswire stories are.
