Replace your garbage OCR with something that actually works! A search for “Shower of Ants in Cambridgeshire” failed because the OCR rendered the text into this gibberish: "Pr.ov Lm CA A phenomenon lin jun occu rredat the • tars VM S orr A closet was &served to be peeling over, w anddeinis to bo eatoulatment of the villagers.

I should love a better image of The Morning Post 26 Jan 1904 page 5. The Munro story is unknown elsewhere and I cannot read most of this image.

Need to improve the Search Facility. e.g. Known articles appearing in the NORTHERN ECHO cannot be located.

Advanced searching doesn't work at all. This is ridiculous. I can't find what I am after because the search results are complete garbage!

I have found lots of useful articles but when I save the paper to my Saved items when I go back to the paper the specific article is no longer highlighted. I can't find the articles. How can I search for a term again in the saved papers. It makes all the searching I did a waste of time and I have to do it all again?

You have no easy access to finding local papers in my search area , so frustrating. Don't I'll subscribe

Typing in "No Bombs" for 1979 brings up a series of rubbish. This isn't acceptable for a paid site. https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/search/results/1979-01-01/1979-12-31?basicsearch=%22no%20%2bbombs%22&exactsearch=true&retrievecountrycounts=false&sortorder=score

I've just registered and for the life of me I cannot see how to access my free pages so I can decide if I'll subscribe.

Browse from issue to issue, page to page, within full screen, as if you were -er - reading a newspaper. (A radical idea for software designers perhaps, but not for newspaper readers). The John Rylands Manchester Observer online does this without a hitch.

The addition of an option to refine a search by page number.

This would be of great assistance in refining search results when the information sought is always found on a give page of a given newspaper.
For instance, the local newspaper I view the most has only four pages with the local news I am interested being almost always found on the back/fourth page. And I'm sure it would be of assistance in others ways for other users too.

When searching, you often find many copies of the same article or advert in different newspapers - and then spend some time choosing the best one to bookmark. It would be useful to be able to label the “rejected” ones so you know you have already looked at them. This could simply be a second type of bookmark in another colour, say. (Even better would be to then be able to exclude these articles from future searches.)

Please make search engine to find "front page Headlines" yet they won't find a page of Eastbourne Herald or Eastbourne Gazette front page of headlines as I remember one headlined "Deaf and Dumb man stabs in club somewhere in 1970's

If one wants to view individual copies of a title, rather than conduct a word search, it's not at all obvious how to do this. There needs to be a top level button or text link saying something like: View Issues

The ordering of search results by date seems very erratic. Each page of results seems to be in date order, but sometimes pages seem to be out of sequence, so that (if asking for 'Dates (earliest)' results) the results on page 5, say, are in fact from earlier sources than those on page 4. This makes it difficult to know that one has seen all the results up to a given date if conducting a search over several sessions.

The name I search ends with an 's' but your search engine changes it to apostrophe s. This bring up thousands and thousands of irrelevant searches. Why is it changing what I type in?
