A new decade
I believe you are still adding editions of newspapers from the 1950s decade. Once you have intended coverage for this and previous decades, will they all be moved forwards to include 1960s, or further? I have a particular need for access to the 1960s as research material and wondered if there was a timescale for when they might be available.

Felix Farley's Bristol Journal and other earlier Farley papers.
Bristol Library has this paper in all its variants avaiabel and it is exceptionally early. It holds information relevant to many historians. It is a serious omission from the website. UWE has a list of all the versions.

Radical Owenite and Chartist Newspapers
While BNA's inclusion of "The Northern Star," the most important organ of Chartism in its first phase," is great, Chartism's outsized influence on the political development of the country as a whole, most obviously in the development of universal suffrage democracy, would seem to merit a much more concerted attempt to include all the major publications of the movement. Two that immediately present themselves to mind are "The Red Republican" and "The People's Paper." Also, a more deliberate attempt at inclusion of the most important newspapers associated with Robert Owen would be most welcome.

Shields Daily Gazette
Please add more 20th century editions of the Shields Gazette. The library service in South Tyneside sent you over 50 years of microfilms back in 2014 (at your request), but you have still not added them to BNA.

NME
I think it would be a good idea to look at adding music papers such as the NME and Melody Maker as well as others, the stories and history of music and bands is in the pages of these papers and that is as interesting and important as other history in the newspapers on your files.

Weston Mercury
I feel that this newspaper would help a lot of family researchers in the South West Region and form a valuable addition to the archives. There is so much unanswered questions and feel a searchable online mercury would benefit so many people. At the moment the only way to access the paper is by microfilm at weston library and this can be so time consuming. I would be particularly interested from editions from 1950's onwards being digitalised.
