Description
While several well-known online newspaper databases are available for a fee, there are many other places to find free access to large collections of these records. Marcie Crocker will mention several that may help you with your research depending on the locality. She will also demonstrate the techniques necessary to get the best results in the least time by focusing on several of her personal favorites: NYS Historic Newspapers with over 10 million pages, Old Fulton New York Postcards with over 47 million pages in New York, other states and Canada, the Library of Congress database, Chronicling America, with over 15 million pages and the Vermont newpapers available free on Newspapers.com through the Vermont.gov web portal.
