Through the Vermont State Archives and Records Administration's (VSARA) partnership with Newspapers.com, a subsidiary of Ancestry.com, early Vermont newspapers in the state archives that are no longer subject to copyright restrictions (papers dating December 1929 and earlier) are available online for free to Vermont residents through the MyVermont.gov state portal.
MyVermont.gov accounts are free and can be created by visiting https://secure.vermont.gov/myvermont. Once logged in, the link to online newspapers appears to Vermont residents.
The digitization of newspaper microfilm is ongoing and due to variations of dates and titles on individual microfilm reels, complete titles for all years or issues may not be available online. Access to additional titles and years for MyVermont.gov account users is at the discretion of Newspapers.com and separate from its partnership with VSARA, which is limited to early Vermont newspapers that are no longer subject to copyright.
