    3. An interesting find at NewspaperArchive.com is as follows: NewspaperArchive.com to Put Entire History of the Jamaica Gleaner Online NewspaperArchive.com. "The world's first, largest and busiest website of fully-searchable historic newspapers, is proud to announce its latest contract with the Jamaica Gleaner. The Gleaner, which boasts a Sunday circulation of 100,000, is the paper of record for the entire Caribbean region. Established in 1834, it has maintained a standard of journalistic excellence and in-depth reporting that set it among the flagship papers of the world. The Jamaica Gleaner is published seven days a week. Its headquarters are in Kingston, Jamaica with offices in London and Toronto. Errol Knight, director of Technology at The Gleaner, initiated the NewspaperArchive.com Gleaner project. Mr. Knight has been the driving force behind the evolution of the Gleaner from a print-only publication to a leading online force in the Caribbean. With the approval of Oliver Clark, the well-respected publisher of The Gleaner, the project is set to commence immediately, and will take approximately 6 months to complete. This will establish The Gleaner as a fully integrated historic resource on the Internet. We are beginning with the most recent history, and working backward from there, said Tim Johnston, marketing director for NewspaperArchive.com. It is fascinating to read about world events from the unique perspective of Jamaica. Online memberships to the entire Gleaner archives will be available online later this year. Patrons may have unlimited access for only $29.95 per year. Monthly rates and one-day passes will also be available for credit card purchase."
