Retired newspapers are finding a new purpose.
Old News, a project started by the Ann Arbor District Library, archives previously published news items throughout Washtenaw County.
Eli Neiburger works for the AADL, and works primarily on the Old News project.
"Libraries are service industries and we want to help people," said Neiburger.
Old News functions as a resource for anyone curious about past news items and family lineage.
"Our goal is to get people the answers to the questions of their own history," said Neiburger.
