Thank you so much! I’m definitely going to check all these sites out, as well as look into to my library! :)

Hi! Where do you find all your news clippings, especially the Victorian ones? Currently I’ve been devouring every book I can get my hands on about Victorian era anything. But really I want to get a sense of the people, and I’d love to just browse through Victorian era letters/newspapers.

Thanks for any help or ideas!

While many historical newspapers are behind a paywall, there are still tons available for free online. Unfortunately they are scattered on lots of different sites so you sometimes have to dig a bit.

The largest single free online newspaper collection is Chronicling America, which is jointly run by National Endowment for the Humanities and the Library of Congress - however it only has American newspapers.

The National Library of Australia has a similar large online collection called Trove, and The National Library of New Zealand has Papers Past.

Most large universities or state historical societies have some sort of online newspaper collection, usually limited to their particular geographic area.

When I start a project focusing on a certain area my first google search is usually '[location] newspaper archives', just to see what pops up.

If you can't find what you're looking for on a free archive, try contacting your local public or university library! Many libraries have subscriptions to paid archival sites, some of which you can even access at home if you have a library card.
