Google News Archive Search

News archive search provides an easy way to search and explore historical archives. Users can search for events, people, ideas and see how they have been described over time. In addition to searching for the most relevant articles for their query, users can get an historical overview of the results by browsing an automatically created timeline. Search results include both content that is accessible to all users and content that requires a fee. Articles related to a single story within a given time period are grouped together to allow users to see a broad perspective on the events.

The News archive search team says that, "Enabling users to read about history as it unfolded allows them to explore and understand the past for themselves." I don't know about you, but I often place my research pieces into chronological order to make sense of an event. Having the results of a search presented this way is a time-saver for likeminded researchers.
