Digitized Montana Newspapers

The Montana Historical Society retired its Montana Newspapers website (montananewspapers.org). Users visiting that website will be redirected here. All content previously available on Montana Newspapers and some additional, newly digitized newspapers are now accessible for free via our Newspapers.com Public Access Portal.

 

Newspapers.com Public Access Portal
The most comprehensive free source of digitized Montana newspapers with nearly 2.5 million pages from over 150 newspapers, spanning 1864-2018. More newspaper issues are available each year as they enter the public domain.

 

Chronicling America
Free access to over 450,000 pages in more than 100 Montana newspapers from 1864-1963. Many of the newspapers are also available via the Newspapers.com Public Access Portal.
