NewspaperARCHIVE – Iowa Education Edition is an online database with tens of millions of historical newspapers that was designed specifically for Iowa schools and libraries. Every newspaper in the archive is fully searchable by keyword and date, making it easy for students and other researchers to view primary sources quickly.

The free version, Iowa Education Edition - Basic, offers content from 1759 to 1977 from newspapers throughout the U.S. and abroad, but excludes titles from Iowa. The no-cost database is a valuable resource to access early articles about people or events that impacted the world. More recent newspapers, as well as content from more than 200 titles in Iowa, are accessible with the upgraded version, Iowa Education Edition - Pro. This version, which includes historical content that is specific to Iowa, allows students to read first-hand accounts about local events that occurred decades ago, find articles about notable Iowans and identify stories that give local perspective on significant world events.
