Hello Dennis,

The London Times pay site is here http://archive.timesonline.co.uk/tol/archive/

Was this the one you were thinking of? I think you’ve used it before. (The magic word was tryinfomarks) http://infotrac.galegroup.com/itweb/fingal

All the best,
Alan

All this talk of newspapers made me remember that there was supposed to be a Phase 2 of the British Library Newspaper project . According to this JISC post -

- it is due Autumn 2009 ? ( grannysrock looks out of window - and sees a fairly autumnal looking mess of brown leaves needing swept up :) )

The new Scottish titles were te be the:

Dundee Courier
Inverness Courier
Edinburgh Evening News
Hawick Express

That may beat the winter blues !
