Boston Public Library Research Services

Founded through the merger of the Attleboro Sun and the Evening Chronicle of North Attleboro in 1971, the Sun Chronicle covers an area of Massachusetts stretching from Foxborough to the state line in Attleboro. The Boston Public Library holds the newspaper on microfilm from its founding until 2017.

The Sun Chronicle did cover the 1994 World Cup, but its coverage of the first game was from a Patriot Ledger reporter. Several area newspapers had sports reporters covering the games at the time.
