Readex of Naples, Fla., a division of NewsBank, has launched American Newspaper Archives — an expanding online collection that will offer access to major U.S. newspapers.

“The archives will provide users with fully searchable digital editions of historically significant and regionally diverse publications from the 19th century through the 1990s,” Readex states in a release.

The service will initially feature nine papers and their “relevant predecessors”: The Times-Picayune of New Orleans, 1837-1988; The Plain-Dealer of Cleveland, 1845-1991; The Oregonian of Portland, 1850-1987; The Press-Register of Mobile, Ala., 1821-1992; The Times of Trenton, N.J., 1883-1993; The Seattle Times, 1896-1984; The Republican of Springfield, Mass., 1850-1987; The Dallas Morning News, 1885-1984; and The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle, 1792-1993.
