I've just discovered that all the Brooklyn Papers, including my favorite, the Park Slope Paper, are available online as PDFs. Finally! Now I don't have to trudge all the way back into Brooklyn just to read the 78th Precinct's Police Blotter. BrooklynPapers.com. Other small circulation papers I try to read every week? The Columbia Spectator and The Stuyvesant Spectator (best article this week: Students Burnt by Bakesale Rules). Any one have any newspapers to add? [Jen, 11:00AM]: My old hometown of Basking Ridge has its news reported in The Bernardsville News...there is also a police blotter. I was sad to hear that my old middle school principal, Joan Tonarelli, was retiring. She was a former nun who ruled Willam Annin Middle School with an iron fist.
