    3. Gwyneth, Some Northumberland papers have been digitised and are on-line via one of the Gale Group databases. This is not a free site. However, NSW residents can get a reader's ticket from the State Library in Macquarie Street which, among other things, will give access from home to some databases - 18th-19th century newspapers included. I know there are some editions of the Newcastle Courant covered. Also, Australian residents can obtain a reader's ticket from the National Library of Australia in Canberra which also gives access from home to these papers and other databases. Reader's tickets can be applied for on-line and are free for both libraries and there is no charge to search these databases using such reader's ticket - the libraries have paid for the subscription.
