Founded in 1817, The Scotsman was established as a liberal weekly to challenge the establishment’s dominance of Edinburgh’s press. With a commitment to “impartiality, firmness, and independence,” the newspaper quickly rose to prominence for its bold reporting and objective stance. Transitioning to a daily in 1855, The Scotsman has since covered significant historical moments, from the Highland Clearances and the Industrial Revolution to world wars and the RMS Lancastria disaster. Today, it remains a highly respected publication, merging its rich journalistic tradition with modern digital platforms while offering in-depth analysis of local and global events.

Please note: The Library already has access to The Scotsman Archive from 1817 to 1950, this trial gives us access to the newly released coverage from 1950-2002.
