The Houston Post Historical Archive includes the years 1886 - 4/1995 (The Houston Post ceased publication in April 1995). Off-campus access to this archive is limited to Rice students, faculty and staff, but other users may gain access from the public workstations located on the first floor of Fondren Library.
The library also has this newspaper on microfilm from 1881 until it ceased in 1995, with a few gaps in coverage.
