Google news archive search

[cambridgedrone]

I don't think this has been mentioned here, and thought it might be of interest: google now has a new feature called News Archive Search which allows you to search newspapers' and periodicals' archives, and narrow the search by year. Lots of the sites that come up require payment, but others are free.

e.g. search for 'coolidge' and this article from 1928 is the top result.

Neat, eh?

Hmm? I'll have to keep this for the future. I'm constantly wondering about or looking for things I recalled or historical stuff from specific dates.:eusa_clap

Unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of sites require payment. [huh]
