This is a link to an alphabetical list of digitised Newspapers and periodicals at the Austrian Library. They have some other nationalities too eg Italian, Hungarian & Czech publications.For example I found some family mentioned in a death notice in the Leitmeritzer Zeitung (Northern Bohemia).

That looks really interesting. Thank you fiddlerslass. Bookmarking for future reference.

I am feeling a bit stupid Maddy, but how do we bookmark?

No need to feel stupid!

I use firefox, but I'm sure it's similar on other browsers - just to the right of the address bar (where it says what page you are on) there is a star. Simply click on the star and the page will be bookmarked. You can also sort your bookmarks into different folders to find them easier, eg a "family history" folder, or whatever suits you.

Hope that makes sense.

Thank you Maddy.
I thought it must be a special Rootschat bookmark, that I have never been able to find.
Glad I was brave enough to ask.

Ah, a RootsChat bookmarking system - an interesting idea. Often I try to remember where I've read something on here and using the "search" function doesn't always get there as you need to search specific terms and hopefully remember who posted.

Searching can be tricky I agree.
