American Newspaper Archives
offers access to major U.S. newspapers. A part of America’s Historical Newspapers, the Archives present users with fully searchable digital editions of historically significant and regionally diverse publications from the 19th century through the 1990s.

American Newspaper Archives provide regional perspectives and reporting on crucial conflicts from the War of 1812 to the Gulf War; movements ranging from women’s suffrage to civil rights; scientific and medical advances; noteworthy people; natural disasters; political campaigns; and much more.

Each title is available individually, and all are cross-searchable via an integrated interface that allows users to easily view, magnify, print and save digital page images. In addition, dozens of other titles from more than 40 states can now also be acquired individually.

American Newspaper Archives features nine papers and their relevant predecessors:
