Included in that list are the state of Illinois collections.
And just a couple of months ago as I have done two times a year since 2014, I updated the Illinois list of free links - Illinois Online Historical Newspapers Summary.
Here are the new County and Library collections that were not in the previous Illinois update. There are a total of 8 new collections with a total of 56 newspapers now available to search.
