We have on microfilm:

  • The Corning Leader - 1840 through December 2005. (The Leader no longer microfilms its back issues. We have newsprint issues of The Leader from 2006 to present date; however several months in 2006 were not saved, due to lack of notice. From September 8, 2008 through present we maintain an electronic archive of The Leader E-Edition, a digital version of the newspaper that preserves all text and images and replicates newspaper formatting. The e-edition archive is searchable.)
