The Georgiana Vertical Files collection consists of newsclippings on a great variety of topics regarding Georgia, and reflect a vast range of the state's history from the 1800s to 1998. This portion of the collection contains general topical files. Clippings were accepted from all sources but the most regular clippings come from the daily newspapers of Athens, Macon, Augusta, Columbus, Savannah and and the Atlanta metropolitan area; thus the files reflect a focus, though certainly not an exclusive one, on those areas.
Arranged alphabetically by topic or name.
This forms part of the Georgiana Vertical Files Collection.
This collection was compiled from a variety of Georgia newspapers over several decades in the latter 20th century as part of the Vertical Files of the Georgia Room; collecting ceased in 1998. In 2011 it was converted to a Manuscript collection in preparation for relocation to a new Special Collections building.
