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.

Hi 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,
Team BNA
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,
Team BNA

Devon Newspapers
You have some Devon papers, but currently your coverage is very patchy. I'm looking for a family in the first half of the C.20th in the Torbay area, but coming up empty. There are many, many Devon titles available, according to this link…

Military newspapers: The Broad Arrow and the United Services Gazette
These newspapers frequently contain information that is useful for both the academic historian and those interested in family history as they trace regimental movements and provide information about promotions, courts-martial, etc.

There is no online coverage of Brighton apart from the four years of the Brighton Patriot in the 1830s. The Keep has no intention of digitising any newspapers for the foreseeable future.
