Google's Newspaper Archive

Just streaming the news this morning through Google News and stumbled across their "archived articles".  You can search for old newspapers.

I created a search for - world war germany berlin.  My search gave me some decent return.  I found a newspaper from April 2, 1962 talking about conflict in Berlin between East and West Germany and liquidating World War II.

Google allows you to easily scroll or flip through each newspaper page easily, highlighting your search terms.

I also searched for - kennedy president jfk.  From the search return, I found an article from The Harper Herald from Nov 22, 1963, the day JFK was assassinated.

What a great way to involve primary source material with your history topics.  Each article has its own web link.  Post and share them on your Moodle course or website for student access.
