Since 1998, the Evanston RoundTable has published a print edition of the newspaper every other week. More than a decade ago, the RoundTable added a website, www.evanstonroundtable.com. Our online archives now contain more than 17,000 articles. The RoundTable has also published 26 magazines. The papers mission has been to find and share stories about the community of Evanston so that we can educate our readers about this remarkable community. This is Evanston, not Lake Woebegone, and some of our stories reflect the persistent challenges faced by an urban-suburban community that is racially, ethnically, and economically diverse. We have sought to hold elected and appointed officials accountable at both the City and School Districts. We have argued for early childhood education, affordable housing and social justice in the community. We have maintained our stance that the School Districts must set high expectations for all students and provide a rigorous, high-level education so all of our children are prepared to succeed in tomorrows world. We have always provided a free print edition and a free online newspaper so people of all income levels could have access to it. Like hundreds of newspapers throughout the country, though, the RoundTables advertising revenues were no longer sufficient to sustain a print edition of the paper. So, as of Nov. 14, we decided to take a hiatus from publishing a print edition of the paper and to focus on our online paper. In so doing, we will adhere to the same level of journalism that we have had in the past. In the 21 years since its initial publication, the RoundTable has earned a reputation for clear analysis and fair reporting. We intend to keep this reputation and to build upon it. The RoundTable newspaper and staff members received 17 journalism awards in the "non-daily" category at the annual Northern Illinois Newspaper Association awards ceremony held in DeKalb in October 2019. The RoundTable newspaper and staff members have received an average of 15 journalism awards from the Northern Illinois Newspaper Association each year in the prior 10 years. RoundTable reporters have also been named as finalists on nine occasions for a Peter Lisagor award from the Chicago Headline Club for in-depth reporting and editorial writing and have won Lisagor awards for "best education reporting" and "best editorials in a community newspaper." The RoundTable has also received many awards from community and regional organizations and institutions. We value these awards because they recognize that our writers have addressed a wide range of important issues facing our community in a thoughtful and professional manner.
