The New Carlisle News, 2002–2015 — and the Gazette's present state, answered

2002 – 9 JANUARY 2015 · biweekly · the town's last home paper in the record reached

The town's twenty-first-century paper was not the Gazette; it was the News, and it has ended: the Library of Congress title record, read first-hand, dates the New Carlisle News 2002–2015, biweekly, described from Vol. 1, issue 5 (27 May 2002) and closing at "v. 13, issue 20 (Jan. 9, 2015)" — a thirteen-volume biweekly that is, on the record reached, the last newspaper seated in New Carlisle. The conflict in the secondary record prints whole: the Chronicling America-derived listing still carries this title as "2002 to current," but the title record itself — the directory's own catalogue page — closes the paper in 2015, and the catalogue governs. That closes the seed question this section was sent to answer, and it is answered from the current seat, as of November 2026: the New Carlisle Gazette is not publishing. No current Gazette — no website, no social-media masthead, no publisher of record, no issue — was found anywhere's searches, which returned only the directory records for its two historical runs; the paper's own current presence does not exist in the record reached because, on that record, there is no current paper. The last publisher seated in the town was the New Carlisle News's own house ("New Carlisle, IN : New Carlisle News, –2015," in the title record's imprint), and since 9 January 2015 New Carlisle has had, on the record reached, no home newspaper at all. A caution a checker will need: the "New Carlisle News" that fills web searches with a photographer's byline and an Ohio dateline is the New Carlisle, Ohio paper — a different town's news, excluded here under the four-doors rule printed at the head of this section.
