Google News Archive contains a large collection of historical backfiles including major newspapers, magazines, and legal archives. Search results include both content that is accessible to all users (such as BBC News, Time Magazine and Guardian) and content that requires a fee (such as Washington Post Archives, NewspaperArchive.com, and New York Times Archives). Hundreds of U.S. and Canadian newspapers have been added recently, but an official list of titles and dates is not available.

Searching

In addition to searching the entire collection of news archives by keyword, Google News Archive's "Advanced Search" page (see screenshot) allows you to limit searches by date, price, and title. To see all content from a specific title, simply enter the title in the "source" box (red box in screenshot) and click "Search Archives". Before paying for content, be sure the Library does not already provide free access to UIUC affiliates. Check the UIUC Library Newspaper Database, our Historical Newspapers page, or contact us.


Title List

In the spirit of sharing, we've compiled the following lists of newspaper titles that we've discovered in Google News Archive. We've added them to the UIUC Library Newspaper Database, so that the titles will show up in searches limited by country, state, city, title, year, and more. We're hoping to update our lists quite frequently, but if you spot an error, find more titles, or have feedback regarding this page, please email us at: hpnl@library.illinois.edu.
