Brooklyn Daily Eagle"About Brooklyn Daily Eagle Online
This project was produced by Brooklyn Public Library's Brooklyn Collection and funded by the Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services, a federal agency that fosters innovation, leadership and a lifetime of learning.
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle was published from 1841 to 1955, then revived for a short time from 1960 to 1963.
Because of the enormous number of pages in the entire run, the digitization of the historic Brooklyn Daily Eagle newspaper from reels of microfilm has been broken down into more than one phase. Phase I, which can at present be found on this site, covers the period from October 26, 1841 to December 31, 1902, representing half of the Eagle's years of publication."
