Seems a good occasion for a reminder that the BNA recently put their subscription prices under the microscope and came up with a massive permanent reduction. A monthly sub is now only £9.95. This gives you access to all 8m pages, which include newspapers from Belfast, Dublin and Cork.

Also worth pointing out that these same papers are included in sister-company FindMyPast's British & Irish newspaper collection.
