A FREE Source For Online Period Newspapers

[Peter Stines]

The Portal of Texas History has a nice collection of documents and NEWSPAPERS on line for FREE! It covers Texas, yes, but also included the rest of the states and European sources. Key word searches, or by dates. decades, publication titles, counties, etc.

It's a shame the advanced search doesn't have more functionality.

The Library of Congress has another free source of digital newspapers.

Thanks for the link.

There are searchable collections in many states. The University of Oregon, for instance, has one for Oregon papers. I've used several in my research. These types of collections can be very useful.
