Good news – The Bristol Evening News fits our inclusion criteria! We have researched the BL catalogue and it is available to us for digitisation. This title is only available to scan from the original paper (i.e. has not been previously microfilmed). Due to the British library’s move of the physical paper archive from Colindale to the custom built storage unit in Boston Spa, the paper is under embargo and we cannot digitise from paper until the new year. However, the good news is that we have the following years on our Digitisation Plan: 1932-1950.

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.

    I think it would be a valuable source to so many people if you concentrated on digitalised editions from the 1950's onwards. I don't understand why so many newspapers that have been digitalised stop at 1950? Surely more people are interested in tracing stories in their parents past or our living memory. At least give us an update please!

    The birthplace of Brunel, the slavery trade, home to Massive Attack and the Lakota club with its rich history, and the famed arts and theatre scene which continues to thrive to this day we need a base on here

    Will there be more of this excellent newspaper coming soon? There has been no updates since September last year!

    Yes, a more Bristol specific paper would be great. Also, post 1950 coverage would be a bonus.
