Can anyone tell me if there are any Newspapers available to view online for 1956?

Hi Tazzy,

I have had great success with the I of M library for press info, I was given this link that was due to be up and running soon,


http://www.gov.im/mnh/heritage/library/imuseum.xml

Also this chap was great  -   Alan.Franklin[at]gov.im (replace the at for @)

Hope that helps!

Best wishes,

the papers up to c.1964 are digitised and available at iMuseum - there are plans to put online sometime this year (subscription model to be determined) - the IoM Times was part of the BL digitisation that was available via larger public libraries tho the payment model changed recently
