Bucks Advertiser & Aylesbury News (1860-1912)
The Bucks Advertiser & Aylesbury News from 1860 - 1912 is on microfilm. The BNA list this newspaper but only a few of the copies are found. Robert Gibbs, the historian, was the proprietor of the Bucks Advertiser and the archive is the poorer for it being online.

Manchester Weekly Times
I'd love to see the weekly version of the Manchester Times added, particularly in the 1870s and 1880s, as I think it's interesting to study regional syndication of serialization of Victorian novels, which happened around this time.

The Oban Times

Its reportage provides insight into the influences effecting change as Oban developed during the 1870s.

More Scottish borders newspapers
There is a big gap in the 1890's for the Berwickshire News (1893-1900) and the The Berwick Advertiser (1893 -1896 and 1898 - 1903). These papers cover a wide area around the Borders with news from both England and Scotland. A very rich source of information.
