The Fife Free Press and The Glenrothes Gazette
The Fife Free Press would be very popular here because not only does it cover the largest town in Fife but also lot's of town's and villages surrounding Kirkcaldy.The Glenrothes Gazette although only been in print since the 1950's would be of great interest to residents of Fife's newest large town and also the surrounding villages.

Thank you for your suggestion. The good news is that The Fife Free Press, & Kirkcaldy Guardian. fits with our criteria for inclusion. 1900 – 1945 have been added to our digitisation plan. Hurrah!
Please note that due to a huge number of titles and years on our digitisation plan, it is extremely difficult for us to say when the first issue will make it through the ‘digitisation sausage machine’ and on to the British Newspaper Archive.Regarding, the Glenrothes Gazette, unfortunately due to copyright and IPR restrictions (and that’s provided we have an agreement in place with the publisher!), we can currently only digitise up to the early 1950s. For that reason, we’ll have to leave out the Glenrothes Gazette as a possibility for digitisation.
Best wishes,

Manchester City News
When I was a child in the 1950s this was the newspaper we searched for references to events we had attended - Rose Queens etc which other newspapers hadnt room for. It also had a useful series on each of the Manchester suburbs at one time and was widely read in South Manchester.

Halstead Gazette
You have covered some of Essex but the papers focus on Chelmsford and Colchester. I would love to see more from smaller towns

Thank you for the suggestion. We have investigated this title and have some good news for you – Halstead Gazette fits with our criteria and The British Library have sufficient holdings! We have now added it to our lengthy digitisation plan for the years 1857-1871. We have had to limit to 1871 due to current copyright restrictions with the rightsholder.We aim to get the best geographical coverage of the UK and will of course continue to add titles from all regions of the UK – including smaller locales.
Please keep an eye on our newsletters and social media pages for updates on titles which are newly added to the British Newspaper Archive – i.e. truly hot off the digital press!

We have researched the BL catalogue and it is available to us for digitisation. We have the following years on our Digitisation Plan: 1854-1871.
Please be aware that until we have received the material into our studio and checked it, it is not possible to guarantee that it will be digitised.

Ellesmere Port News
Probably the earliest newspaper dedicated to events in Ellesmere Port. There appears to have been at least two Issues: Number 1, 5th December 1908 and Number 2, 12th December 1908, but were any more published?
