Connections are provided to information about newspapers and newspaper sources. These link to both individual newspapers, including major newspapers in Australia and around the world, newspaper chains and directories listing papers either in specific areas or around the world.

There is information about specialist forms such as college & university newspapers, Australian local papers, news commentary, online newspapers, front page collections and even Bloopers.

You are able to access most papers from around the world by using one or more of the links provided.

We have linked with English versions of newspapers where this is possible. Many papers from countries whose first language is not English often provide access to the same news in their first language. Where the language available is not English, this is indicated.

In some instances, you need to be aware there may be content that is not suited for particular age groups. It is indicated when we are aware of this. It is particularly relevant with sites based on commentary rather than factual reporting.
