Any Hawick paper
For a long time you had no papers published in the Scottish Borders. You've now added the Southern Reporter, thank you, but this provides very little coverage of news in Hawick, the region's largest town then. Please add one of the Hawick papers, like the Hawick News, to plug this gap. Thank you.
82 votesHi Vivienne,
Hopefully you will have seen that the Hawick News has been making it’s way on to the site as we digitise it. You can access it directly here: http://bit.ly/1DDUI2dBest wishes,

Hi Vivienne, Thank you for your feedback. We have investigated the possibility of inclusion. Good news – The Hawick News is within scope for inclusion as we have an agreement with the publisher. It was published from 1889.
We have added the following years to our Digitisation Plan: 1889-1951
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.
Best wishes,

Dorset County Chronicle
The Dorset coverage is very odd – the Sherborne Mercury is available for 1789-1867, but it’s subtitled the Western Flying Post and the Yeovil Mercury, and is clearly focused on northern Dorset and Somerset.
The newspaper produced in Dorset’s market town (Dorchester) was the Dorset County Chronicle, but there are ONLY five years’ worth (1863-67) of issues on the British Newspaper Archives site.
Dorchester was the legal, political, trade and administrative capital of the county and the Dorset County Chronicle would be the best newspaper for tracing the county’s history. The Chronicle was published from 1824.

Thank you for your suggestion. We have investigated the availability of the Lincolnshire Free Press – The good news (pun intended!) is that 1. It is in scope for us and 2. It appears to be available to us as microfilm. So . . . we have added this to our digitisation plan for future digitisation!

Catholic Newspapers printed in Britain
In the late 19th & early 20th centuries, there were over 30 Catholic newspapers published in Britain, mainly for the Irish Catholic community living in Britain, eg Irish Tribune, Preston Catholic News, Glasgow Observer & Catholic Herald, Tyneside Catholic News, Catholic Times & Catholic Opinion, etc. Few copies of these titles have survived beyond The British Library's collection.
