Tasmanian Index (1966-1994)

The Tasmanian Index provides references to articles in the three metropolitan Tasmanian newspapers; the Mercury, the Examiner and the Advocate, and to most other Tasmanian journals and regional newspapers. Most articles are indexed, but there are some exclusions (including routine sport reports and results, and reports of court proceedings). The Index also includes references to the contents of a few important early Tasmanian publications such as John West's History of Tasmania (1852) and the Cyclopedia of Tasmania (1900 and 1931).

The index has been maintained since 1966. Records from 1966 to 1994 have now been digitised and are available below (you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to open the files).

For records dating from 1994 onwards please visit the online version of the Tasmanian Index.
