Advantage Preservation Adds 3 Million Historical Newspaper Pages

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.


​
Since that time, as of late April, 2017, Advantage Preservation and their customer institutions have added 15 new collections, and have added to 76 of their current collections. This represents collection adds/updates from 23 different states, totaling about 3 million pages.

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 two months or so.
