The Bradford Observer is on the site for 1834-1875. Digitising the rest of it would be great.

The Halifax Guardian at Colindale was always in good nick, why can't you add this to the plan too?

Decent coverage of Bradford. A major city with virtually no coverage other than the original FREE project

Sheffield newspapers during the first world war years. Also perhaps the South Yorkshire Times, as there are three titles for South Yorkshire, and all are Sheffield based, whereas the South Yorkshire Times covers the Dearne Valley, Doncaster, Rotherham, part of Barnsley.

Still many gaps in Yorkshire coverage - please keep giving more important C20 regional titles priority.

Add C19th and early c20th Halifax West Yorkshire pages - Halifax Courier and Halifax Guardian - this area went through massive changes in the industrial revolution and there is a large centre of population here missing from the archives.

Wakefield is a major conurbation (>300,000 population in the district) and warrants coverage, e.g. Wakefield Express, which started in 1852

The Brighouse Echo is on microfilm at the public library but there is no way to search and consequently you can spend hours with scant reward

In addition I would suggest the Halifax Guardian too. There's a distinct lack of titles covering this heavily populated part of west yorkshire.

There were a number of newspapers covering this area. My personal favourites would be Barnsley Chronicle and Mexborough and Swinton Times

Any Bradford newspaper for 19th and 20th century. The various Leeds papers only have a limited amount of Bradford news
