Advantage Preservation Adds 1.5 Million Historical Newspaper Pages - May 2017

In February, 2017, I published a list of the catalog of online historical newspapers from over 400 different collections put together by the Advantage Preservation Company, developed in conjunction with the libraries, historical societies and museums across the U.S. who preserve the historical newspapers for their communities. To see the entire list go to Search 40 Million Historic U.S. Newspaper Pages for Free! It totals over 40 million pages from 37 states from the U.S.


​

As of early May, 2017 another 3 million pages were added - ​ 15 new collections, and additions to 76 of their current collections - Advantage Preservation Adds 3 Million Historical Newspaper Pages.

As of early June, 2017, another 1.5 million pages added. Here are the new County and Library collections that were added after the previous Advantage Preservation update, followed by the collections that have had additional newspapers added to their collections in the last month.
