If you have a Library Card, then you should be able to get access from your home PC through the Library to the online newspapers. There are not many local ones yet but there is the Birmingham Daily Post and The Times.

Do you have to go into a library to do this or can I access it at home?
 
Re: william edward wadlow 1897-1904 died 7 yrs old

I can access it at home and as far as I know all Libraries in England offer it. I just go to my Library's webpage and type in the barcode number on my Library Card and a whole other world is opened up to me in my armchair.

I joined up with Lancashire Library https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/onrl/premiums.asp as I was doing family research of the area. They sent me the card in a couple of days even though I live the other end of the country! But as I say I think all libraries offer this
