We are pleased to add two new online subscriptions to our reference databases...and both can be accessed from home. Visit meredithlibrary.org, scroll down a bit on the home page and then click on Services>Genealogy to access our new databases Newspapers.com and Fold3, as well as the ones we already have including Ancestry, HeritageQuest, AmericanAncestors and FamilySearch.
First, Newspapers.com offers full-page images with searchable full text from over 17,000 different newspapers in the US and worldwide. Dating from the early 1700s into the early 2000s. Newspapers.com Library Edition contains full runs and portions of runs of known, regional, and state titles to small local newspapers in the United States and other countries. The second one is Fold3 featuring premier collections of original military records. These records include the stories, photos, and personal documents of the men and women who served in the military. Many of the records come from the U.S. National archives, The National Archives of the U.K. and other international records.
