description
Amherst College was founded in 1821. Marshall Bloom graduated in 1966, and shortly thereafter, he founded the Liberation News Service. The Archives and Special Collections contains the Alternative Press collection, which consists primarily of the archival copies of underground newspapers from LNS (they required all subscribers to send copies of publications using LNS material; the collection is therefore national in scope). It also contains the Marshall Bloom papers, and other collections associated with the LNS.
