More Church of Ireland Gazette editions online

The Representative Church Body (RCB) Library's project to digitise all historical editions of the Church of Ireland Gazette is moving on at a steady pace.

Another 16 years' of editions – from 1934 to 1949 – have been digitised and uploaded (by service provider Informa) to the dedicated database at https://esearch.informa.ie/rcb. This means that weekly editions spanning 93 years from March 1856, when the paper first appeared, are freely shared online for all.

The RCB Library holds the only complete hard-copy run of this newspaper, which became an e-newspaper in 2005.

The current Church of Ireland Gazette and all editions from 2005 may be viewed via an online subscription on the Gazette website at https://gazette.ireland.anglican.org.
