The Trinity Tripod - unbound print issues

 Collection
Identifier: TCA-YYYY-015

Scope and Contents

The Trinity Tripod - unbound print issues is a collection of loose issues of Trinity College's student newspaper, The Trinity Tripod. The College Archives maintains bound versions of the Tripod from 1904 until April 2015, when the binding of volumes ceased. This collection is not comprehensive; not all years are represented and not all issues within a particular year are represented. The collection is missing the following academic years altogether: 1994-95, 1995-96, 1997-98, 1998-99, 1999-2000, 2014-15, and 2015 (Fall).

Bound volumes are available in the College Archives. Digital versions are available in the Trinity College Digital Repository.
