Tips about Newspaper Websites and Sale Ends 2 December

Special Newspapers website deal ends this weekend. The basic plan is normally $45 every 6 months. Until the end of this weekend (2 December, 11:59 PM MT) it is $20 off, so you could get the basic 6 months for just $25!

A more expensive "Publishers Extra" plan is available that is also $20 off. This one includes many papers up into recent years, and is ideal for those who also search for the living or more recent events.

Choose your subscription. The best way to find out if it is worthwhile before joining is to check the list of their papers to see if they cover the areas you need. Here is the list: Link to list of papers.
 This is my favorite newspaper search website to use, with the best user interface.

There are also other subscription newspaper websites. Some papers can be found on more than one site, but many papers are unique to one of them. I personally maintain subscriptions to this site and GenealogyBank.

You can find a list of the papers GenealogyBank includes on their website at this link.

NewspaperARCHIVE.com is my third recommendation when considering subscriptions to newspaper websites. It has less papers useful for my research, with many of the papers it has being on the other two sites as well. However, sometimes it has what I have needed and I have used it to have success finding some important newspaper articles. So although it is in third place among my recommendations, you never know which of the three will have the articles you need until you check.

There are also really good newspaper websites for Britain, Ireland, and probably other countries that have sites of which I am not aware.
