    Thank you for your feedback. For this newspaper, we have the following titles in, or planned for, our digital archive:

    1854–1903 The Derbyshire Times and Chesterfield Herald
    1903–63 The Derbyshire Times, etc.

    Unfortunately much of the post 1900 material is only available as the original paper copy from the British Library. Whilst they move the collection from Colindale to Boston Spa, paper is in embargo. We are looking forward to scanning from paper again in the new year!

    Best wishes,

    Team BNA

    Hi, A quick update – we have added the Dudley Herald to our Digitisation Plan for future digitisation!

    Thanks for your votes. There’s obviously a gap in the West Midlands / Black Country – we’ll start seeing what we can do about it!

  12. Beverley Guardian

    Beverley Guardian/Advertiser would be terrific as it covered lots of news for the East Riding of Yorkshire areas that wasn't always covered in other papers such as the Hull Daily Mail

    Good news – The Beverley Guardian 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: 1856-1871.

    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.

  14. Ashton Reporter

    A publication from Ashton under Lyne, the town which invented chips and fish and witnessed the Shaw family of brewers which spread to Merseyside and other towns in Lancashire such as Leigh. The Shaw family spawned an MP and local mayors. The Shaws were munificently generous leaving property and land to local residents and were generally very charitable.

  17. Sports titles

    Hi - Delighted to see the Sports Argus up recently and wonder if more sports-based material is planned? From a selfish point of view I'd ask for the Sheffield Green 'Un (which does cover a wide swathe of Yorkshire & NE Midlands) but also suggest the Athletic News as a more general, historical source. Keep up the good work!

  19. The Athenaeum and the Literary Gazette

    Please digitise THE Athenaeum and the Literary Gazette, both of which are impossible to obtain outside the capital (UCL), and even then the former now has to be ordered a volume at a time, and the latter is only accessible in scratched microfilm
