Newseum

If you’re on the road, or in a place where you can’t get papers, here are two useful sites for looking at the front pages of newspapers from all around the world.

Newseum is very comprehensive but the interface is slow and unintuitive in my opinion, although it does enable you to download high-resolution PDFs for printing should you want.

PressDisplay isn’t as complete (e.g. no UK broadsheets) but the interface is quicker and you can see all of one country’s front pages in a single window, which is good for a quick look at what’s making the front pages in the U.S. for example. The paid version lets you read the inside pages too.

If you know of any similar sites to Newseum & PressDisplay, let me know….

Whilst I’m at it, OnlineNewspapers.com is an excellent resource for hunting down the websites of papers.
