Saskatchewan Online Historical Newspapers Summary

4/17/2020

1 Comment

 
Picture
Saskatchewan is one of the Canadian provinces that does not have a single central online repository for searching historical newspapers (although one is in its infancy). There are several free publications available on other sites and there are collections available on subscription sites. Below is a list of where the titles are stored and the link so that you can access them. 

So go for it - find your Saskatchewan ancestors and all the interesting articles that capture the stories of their lives. 

Please note that I have not always entered the dates that are included in the collections, as I suspect they will change as more items are digitized. Also I suspect that some of these links may change over time - so if there is a dead link - please use your favorite search engine to find their new location.
