Library Research

You can help build the JoniMitchell.com library. We are looking for any and all articles that have been written over the years concerning Joni. News items, concert reviews, interviews - anything with more than a passing reference to her.

If you are interested in helping, the best way is to first look at the Chronology of Appearances and find out when Joni was in a city near a library that you have access to. Check the Joni Library first, and if no material exists there from that time, visit the local library and look through newspaper microfilm at dates before and after the event. Usually, you'll be able to find advertisements for the concert/event, as well as concert previews and reviews. If you find something, send it our way!

There is a particular wealth of unfound articles from the 60's and 70's in places like Detroit, Los Angeles, Toronto, Saskatoon, Calgary, etc...


Here are some articles that we know exist, but have been unable to get copies of:
