(Great) Yarmouth Independent 1857 to WW2
Great Yarmouth in Victorian times was a major seaside resort and herring fishery. This paper is full of interesting facts. We have a thriving local research group which uses the hard copies of the paper regularly. Unfortunately they are in a poor state

Daily Herald
The Daily Herald was an extremely important daily labour newspaper. It is especially important for anyone studying labour history in Britain. The First World Years have been digitised, but it would be great to have the interwar years made available as soon as possible.

More Carlisle newspaper editions
Please add more early years for the Carlisle Patriot and Carlisle Journal. The Patriot currently only runs from 1817-1820 plus about 3 editions from January 1821 as well as some random later years. The Carlisle Journal has 1847 and 1849 missing in its run from 1833-1866. It would be nice to have the whole of the 19th century covered without gaps by one or the other of the Carlisle papers.
