Frontpage of the News of Orange County Newspaper in 1945.

Thanks to our partnership with Orange County Public Library, we now have additions of The News of Orange County now available on Digital NC. The new additions include the years 1944 to 1964. Issued out to the community on Thursdays, The News of Orange County discussed news out of Hillsborough, North Carolina, and other parts of Orange County as well. 

Many of the issues cover a special section about members of the armed forces from Orange County as they fought in World War II.
