History

The Australian Jewish News has been the primary newspaper of the Australian Jewish community since 1935, published weekly from Melbourne with editions serving communities across the country. It covers community affairs, international news with a focus on Israel and the Middle East, cultural events, and general interest features for its readership.

The archive's clippings span 1968 to 1996, a period that encompasses several distinct phases of Australian UFO activity: the late 1960s wave, the Valentich disappearance in 1978, and the resurgence of interest through the 1980s and early 1990s. The paper's coverage of aerial phenomena appeared primarily as general interest and science features rather than hard news reporting.
