Older Swedish newspapers
Older Swedish newspapers are available partly in digital format and partly on microfilm. The period 1907-2013 is mainly on microfilm, while more recent material is available digitally.
Svenskt pressregister (1880-1911)
Svenskt pressregister is a register of articles in about 15 Swedish newspapers from 1880 to 1911. The register is available in printed format in the reference collection at the University Library. Part 7 (1903-1911) is available in fulltext.
The database "Svenska tidningar" from the National Library contains digitised Swedish newspapers from 1645 onwards. All material is searchable in fulltext, and articles older than 100 years can be read directly in the database regardless of your location. Articles younger than 100 years can be read on special computers at the University Library.
The library has a large collection of microfilmed newspapers dating until the end of 2013 (more recent material is available via "Svenska tidningar"). The easiest way to find out which newspapers the library has on microfilm is to check the register "Tidningsfilm : mikrofilmade svenska dagstidningar". The journals labelled Umeå Q are available at the University Library.
