Newspapers Online

• There are also newspapers freely available on the Internet

• In addition UU Library subscribes to a selection of online newspapers.

Online newspapers (whether on the Internet or UU databases) have the great advantage of often having online archives which can be searched much more quickly than print or microform indexes.

This is covered in the following slides.
