Independent has partnered with NewsBank.com to create an online newspaper archive for newszap.com visitors to purchase previously published material from our group newspapers.This archive is advertised in the lower left-hand corner of the newszap.com community home pages. Clicking the button takes visitors to a co-branded e-commerce site where individual articles or subscriptions of varying lengths can be purchased.
Independent’s newsrooms have free unlimited access to these archives. Our newspapers, including all the back issues we had converted and stored in a digital format, are now readily accessible in a single place on the Internet where they can be searched and sorted by keywords and dates. While the archives do not include photos, artwork, or ads, they still have the potential to be a great research tool.
