Shields Weekly News
You have very good (though not complete) coverage of the (NORTH) Shields Daily News (under its changing names) right up to 21 August 1959 when it ceased to be a daily paper. The final edition of the paper in your archive has, handwritten on the top of the front page, 'Last issue of this paper. Continued as Shields Gazette', That is incorrect. The Gazette is a quite different SOUTH Shields paper.
The fact that there was a proprietorial link between the North and South Shields newspapers (owned by Northern Press at the time) might explain the confusion but there is…3 votes -

Dorking and Leatherhead Advertiser
I'm researching the history of brass and silver bands in the Dorking and Leatherhead area. The files for the Dorking and Leatherhead Advertiser series appears to have a gap between 1951 and 1968. This seriously hampers the work I'm doing. Please fill this gap.

West Cumberland Times - January-April 1902
West Cumberland Times - those printed from January-April 1902 are not available to search yet but virtually all the rest are. This appears to be an ommission - you may have them ready but not yet uplaoded. Could you please action this?

The Egyptian Gazette
Until 1952, this was a British paper published in Egypt. Contains all sorts of information on British society abroad, and on Egypt as a tourist destination for European society. It would be great to be able to access this and other colonial papers.
The whole run is available at the British library!

The North Oxfordshire Monthly Times and Agricultural Advertiser (NOMT)
The North Oxfordshire Monthly Times, and Agricultural Advertiser (NOMT)
The above newspaper was founded in 1849 by J.S. Hiron, an enterprising printer and bookseller in Deddington. It was an 8-page broadsheet, and was regularly published each month up to at least June 1860, although copies only survive (at the British Library) up to August 1854.
Typical of the provincial newspapers of the day, it carried domestic and foreign news, letters, local news and advertisements. There were well-written leading articles, some of considerable intellectual rigour, on national, local and religious issues of the day. Its motto was "Open to all, influenced…4 votes -
Cork Mercantile Chronicle
This paper operated in Cork between 1802 and 1835 according to here: https://www.library.mun.ca/qeii/maritimehistory/newspapers/newsuk/130/ which says they also have this paper on microfilm, so you should be able to get it easily.

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.

Bombay Gazette
This series currently ends in 1868, which is halfway through my great-great-grandfather’s story, who appeared regularly in the paper. I want to find out the rest of his story.

Shoe and Leather News
All about the shoe industry and it’s workers. I would specifically like to see the late 1960s covered first but great for any. Would be a great resource for all shoemaking ancestors and especially in Northamptonshire and Leicestershire. Please vote for it!
