Google has launched a search on the
News Archive Search newspaper archives, created by scanning newspaper files for the last two centuries.
The new service is an excellent addition to the usual
search on the news , where the available archive is limited to only 30 days. There are no restrictions in the archive. There are far fewer sources of information, but the earliest reports date back to the mid-18th century.
Search results for each request are sorted by year and by source of information. Most of the texts are available for free, but a small amount is charged for reading the archives of the Washington Post and NY Times, and Google does not receive a cent from this money.
