Founded in 1917, "An Stoc" was edited by Tomas O Maille, and contained articles by many academics and others associated with University College Galway at the time. The paper was printed from 1917 - 1920, and again from 1923 - 1931. It was one of the first provincial newspapers in Irish, and the first in Connacht. This digital collection contains publications from 1917 to 1931.

The collection was digitised in 2022 with support and funding from Foras na Gaeilge.
