New Research Tool: Student Media Map (Searchable Database of Every Student Newspaper in the USA)

Say Hello to Student Media Map!

Here’s the launch announcement (via LinkedIn and reposted with permission) from Barbara “Bob” Allen, Founder and Director of CollegeJournalism.org.

My little black book now has 1,100 names in it.

Newspaper names, that is.

Today, I’m proud to announce the launch of the Student Media Map, a searchable database of every student newspaper in the country.

This has been an awesome collaboration among the University of Vermont Center for Community News, the College Media Association, the Society of Professional Journalists, the Associated Collegiate Press, the Student Press Law Center and the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. The camaraderie exhibited by these groups as we worked to complete this map demonstrates the generosity, humility and value of the organizations that serve student media.

Like any attempt to categorize such a vast amount of information, mistakes will be made, which is why, at the top of the map, you’ll see a form to report errors or make additions.
