British Newspaper Archive uploads its 200th Irish title

The British Newspaper Archive (BNA) has added a fourth historical newspaper title from County Clare. It's the Kilrush Herald and Kilkee Gazette.

As of this morning there are 1,590 editions available for searching, with some significant gaps covering the 1880s.

When its holding is fully digitised and uploaded to the online archive, it will give access to editions published 1879 to 1922.

The revised line-up for this county is shown below.

The BNA's database is shared with its sister company FindMyPast (FMP), so if you have a PRO subscription with that supplier, you'll have full access the titles above and its entire Irish Newspaper Collection.

This latest addition to the BNA & FMP collection marks the upload of its 200th Irish title.
