The Wikipedia Library

Newspaperarchive.com

Access or apply for this resource →

NewspaperARCHIVE.com is an online database of digitized newspapers. It claims to be the world's largest newspaper archive with over 2 billion news articles, with coverage extending from 1607 to the present from US, Canada, the UK, and 20 other countries. For more information see their website.

There are up to 1000 one-year accounts available to Wikipedians through this partnership.

Userbox

Add {{Wikipedia:Newspaperarchive.com/Userbox}} to your userboxes! This helps us share our project with other experienced users.

NA

This user accesses Newspaper Archive via The Wikipedia Library.

Example citation

{{cite news|title= Appeals Heard in Criminal Court|newspaper= Bluefield Daily Telegraph| location = Bluefield, West Virginia| date = July 19, 1932 | page=4| url=http://newspaperarchive.com/profile/stephanie-morgan/clipnumber/16765/}}

"Appeals Heard in Criminal Court". Bluefield Daily Telegraph. Bluefield, West Virginia. July 19, 1932. p. 4.

Clippings

Both Newspaperarchive.com and The Wikipedia Library would prefer that articles citing Newspaperarchive.com link to clippings. Clippings allow Newspaperarchive.com subscriber-editors to identify particular articles, extract them from the original full sheet newspaper and share them through unique URLs. Thus readers who click on a Newspaperarchive.com Clipping links will be able to access that particular article without needing to subscribe to Newspaperarchive.com. Clippings can be deleted by the user who created the clipping, but otherwise remain permanently open access, even when user accounts expire.

To clip an article, an account will need to be created on Newspapersarchive.com. Be aware that clipped articles will be associated with you newspaperarchive.com username and that it might then be fairly easy to connect your newspaperarchive.com username to your WP username. To avoid this, create a separate email account.

Go to WP:LIBRARY
If necessary log in to the Wikipedia library
Go to the newspaperarchive.com site
Click on the "Clip" link at the upper right.
Either create a Newspaperarchive.com account or log in to your Newspaperarchive.com account.
Clip the article

To refer to a Newspaperarchive.com article on Wikipedia, the URL of the clipped Newspaperarchive.com article is needed.

On https://newspapersarchive.com, click on "My Account" and then "Favorite Pages."
Find the clipped article. Note that there might be a delay of a few minutes before a recently clipped article is visible.
Click on clipped article and copy the URL in the browser window.
When using the URL of the clipped article in a Wikipedia article, is a best practice to replace "https://access-newspaperarchive-com.wikipedialibrary.idm.oclc.org" with "https://newspaperarchive.org" However, a bot will probably eventually fix it.

Note that if you download a PDF of the clipped article, then the URL at the bottom might be incorrect. It is best to use the URL from the clipping found via the My Account -> Favorite Pages.

-#{{user8|EddieHugh|Project=en}} My main contributions are to jazz articles (16 GA, 15 of which are biographies). Some of the players I write on had local or regional reputations rather than national ones, so coverage of them in national newspapers of the time, books, etc is limited. Newspapers.com has been of some value; assuming that Newspaperarchive.com has some additional sources, it will help further.

-#{{user8|Lawikitejana|Project=en}} in the several years I have been editing Wikipedia, I have previously used this resource a great deal back when I was employed and had the money to subscribe. I've used it for various historical figures from business and entertainment, such as [[Stanley Marcus]] and [[Charo]] because it enabled me to look up articles from the first half of the 20th century that ''aren't'' covered by newspaper archives to which I presently have access through my local library (e.g., NewsBank). While these days I'm not able to edit quite as often as I used to, I do edit periodically and it contributed to a wide variety of articles,  including those on various diplomatic rescuers during the Holocaust, as well as several related to El Salvador and its 12-year civil war, much of which is not covered by some of the other archives due to copyright issues that rule out access to articles from 1977-1984.
