The British Library’s Newspaper Library Available to Purchase

The British Library‘s Newspaper Library catalogue has now gone online. Its main strength is of course the size and scope of its collection. It covers all UK newspapers since 1801, and many from earlier. Also included are UK and Irish provincial newspapers from the 1700s onward and a large selection of material from mainly the Commonwealth countries and Western and Slavonic language material. A wide range of UK and Irish popular periodicals appear, mainly weekly and fortnightly publications as well as some published less frequently, covering all subjects from fashion, pop music, and cinema, to sports, hobbies, and trades journals....
