Hi everyone!

I'm pleased to announce that we've added more newspapers to Papers Past. The titles and issues now available are:

Ashburton Guardian (1890-1895, 1897, 1899-1909, 1911-1920)
Manawatu Standard (1883-1886)
Manawatu Times (1877-1881, 1883-1884)
Ohinemuri Gazette (1891-1892, 1896-1921)
Thames Star (1874-1900)
Waiapu Church Times (1907-1908)
Waiapu Church Gazette (1910-1920)

And we'll be adding even more in late June, including the addition of the first 10 years of the Lyttelton Times, the first ~40 years of the Otago Daily Times, and the extension of the Evening Post through 1945, our first paper in Papers Past to cover World War II!

Here's a complete list of what we're adding in June:

Poverty Bay Herald (gap: 1902)
Lyttelton Times (1851-1862)
Evening Post (July-Dec 1871, 1916-1945)
Thames Star (1901-1920)
Albertland Gazette (1862-1864)
The Colonist (1857-1889)
Otago Daily Times (1861-1900)
Waiapu Church Gazette (1921-1945)

As always, we welcome any feedback you might have or requests to see certain newspaper titles available on Papers Past.
