Historic American Newspapers Move Online

If you are an American History buff you will be interested to know that the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Library of Congress has announced that "Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers" is available online.
The site has more than 226,000 pages of public domain newspapers from California, Florida, Kentucky, New York, Utah, Virginia and Washington DC published between 1900 and 1910. The text of the newspapers is searchable, and search terms can focus on a single state, newspaper, year and months.

That was an 8 percent increase since 2002.
