1851 - 1922 Available for Free
The New York Times historic newspaper collection has been
available from a number of fee-based databases for years. Recently, paid
subscribers to The New York Times have had access to "Times
Select" as part of their paid subscription. The "Times Select" collection
included the historic newspaper collection with an archives that covered
the period from 1851 to 1980.
As of midnight last night, The New York Times has made virtually
all of its "Times Select" Web site content available on its Web site
without fee to the public. Among the free content is the full-text
searchable historic newspaper collection covering the period from 1851 to
1922. Material from 1922 to 1980 remains available as part of the same
collection on a fee basis given that the material has not entered the
public domain.
To search The New York Times archive for the period from 1951 to
1980, go to:
http://query.nytimes.com/search/query?srchst=p. There you may find it
helpful to click on the "Advanced" search link so that you can search the
text of the articles, headlines and by author names and can create a
custom date range.
As one might expect, the collection offers a wealth of historic material
relating to Pelham and Pelham and surrounding areas. For those interested
in Pelham history, this is a free tool that cannot be ignored.
