Which newspaper archive?
« on: Thursday 26 October 17 13:45 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Can anyone tell me which is the best/most informative searchable online newspaper archive.  I know there are newspapers on findmypast but I wonder if the British Newspaper Archive would have more papers to search.  Or perhaps someone has a better suggestion.

Many Thanks

Sue

BNA is produced by F M P in conjunction with the British Library. 

Some local libraries have access to other newspapers that you can view online at home providing you have a library card
