Hello all I received on another list a notice that indicated that the newspapers archived by the site "Paper of Record" are now free to search AND also free to see the actual newspaper page. I just tried it and it is indeed free - you must register with an email address and some other information but no credit card is needed and there is no fee structure that I could find on the site. It has newspapers for all over the world including the US and Canada, and dating back to the 1800's. It is also keyword searchable. Here is a link to the site http://www.paperofrecord.com/default.asp Hope this is of help to someone Sincerely Thelma
