Martin, when you access the newspapers through the Manchester Library, does this mean you go to the Manchester Library website and then go from there, essentially accessing this website through the library account? I'm curious as this is the 3rd year I can remember that Gale has made some part of their archives accessible during the month of March but after a certain amount of time I can no longer access the Gale website and didn't realize it could be accessed from other websites. I spent most of my afternoon yesterday searching the Liverpool Mercury. I also looked for Bolton newspapers but couldn't find any on the list of publications. Does anyone know the names of the Bolton's newspapers during the 19th century and am I just missing them? TIA. Kathy Swift Thompson, Bozeman Montana

They seem to have removed it now, when I tried earlier I think you clicked on (Gale) Library Home Page and got the 19th Century British newspapers and something to do with Shakespeare but they are no longer there. They must have enabled trial access to the 19th Century British newspapers for all their subscribers. Just have to hope that some subscribe to it now.
