    This is an excellent idea.My major reason for subscribing was to research Oldham in WW1 but I've had little luck & have to make many trips to the British Library.Please help out all of us who are researching topics connected with this major town.Oldham Evening Chronicle,Oldham Chronicle,Oldham Standard....anything!

    Still no sign of any Oldham newspapers or indication there is any plan to add them.It must surely be the biggest town so far ignored & was also a major centre of British industry along with being of considerable historical political interest.Both of town's principal newspapers had far larger readership & influence than so many of the additions to the archive. Having to rely on truncated tidbits from Manchester newspapers is deeply unsatisfying

    The Oldham Chronicle or Oldham Standard would be fantastic. As pointed out by Brian, the Oldham area's population is much higher than many others you have already covered. Also it was one of the pre-eminent industrial towns of the Victorian era.

    as a major town in industrial Britain I really feel Oldham should be covered.
