The Advance Leader Newspaper Archives Project

The Oakmont Historical Society has partnered with the Oakmont Carnegie Library to have old copies of the Advance Leader newspaper digitized and uploaded to the Oakmont Library website. The database, which spans the years 1917 to 1950, documents the history of Oakmont and the surrounding area. The keyword search archives are a wealth of information for those interested in local history.

Below is taken from the Oakmont Carnegie Library and put here for quicker access to the Advance Leader Database… just click on the title.
