Russian Independent Newspaper Collection

Since the inception of perestroika and continuing through the disintegration of the Soviet Union, a rigorous and vocal press has developed. This new journalism was created by individuals and groups from all sides of the political spectrum. In future years, the output of the independent presses of this era will prove to be a valuable document of these times. 

In the UC Berkeley Library, we have gathered a substantial collection of the Russian independent press dating back to 1989. This collection, however, has not been incorporated into the Library's main collections and cannot be searched in the Library's on-line catalog. A searchable database for these items can be accessed through the links below.

On-site Access: At the present time, use of the materials must be limited to faculty, students and staff of the UC Berkeley community. Interested persons should contact Allan Urbanic, the Librarian for Slavic Collections, to make arrangements for viewing any of the documents. No interlibrary loan access or reference service about the collection can be provided due to nature of the material and a lack of staff to process such requests. Special arrangements for members of PACSLAV can be made through the local Slavic specialist of PACSLAV member institutions
