More Then Now<br> On 3 April 1857 the Knowlton ''Advertiser and Eastern Townships Sentinel'' announced:  


:There are thirty-seven English papers and three published in English and French in Lower Canada. Of These, twenty-three are published in Montréal, seven in Québec, and two in Sherbrooke. Three Rivers, Aylmer on the Ottawa, St. John’s, Stanstead, Granby and Knowlton in the Eastern Townships, and New Carlisle in the district of Gaspé have one each. The publication of another English paper is announced; it is to be entitled the ''Québec Herald and Knowlton Advertiser''.

Those that survive contain a great deal of information useful to genealogists. Most reference libraries will have the now out of date''Union List of Newspapers Held by Canadian Libraries'' (Ottawa: Library of Canada, 1977; 1983), or the''Canadian Newspapers on Microfiche ''(Ottawa: Library of Canada, 1993). This catalogue list of newspapers available in microform '''at the Library of Canada''', is now available on the NLC website as are listings of the newspapers the library currently receives, and an updated ''Checklist of [http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/newspapers-at-lac/035005-2000-e.html indexes to Canadian newspapers]'', compiled by Sandra Burrows and Franceen Gaudet (Ottawa:Library of Canada, 1987). The Library of Canada receives, through legal deposit, all newspapers filmed after 1 January 1988 for which more than three copies are produced and are attempting to acquire all newspapers filmed commercially before 1988, starting with daily newspapers. The Library has acquired most of the Québec daily newspapers through purchase or legal deposit. The Bibliothèque nationale du Québec through its filming programme with the Archives nationale du Québec makes all the print titles it has acquired available on film.

:There are very few complete runs of newspapers extant, and I have begun indexing what is available on microfilm from the Library in Ottawa as well as the extensive holdings of the Missisquoi Historical Society (MHS) in Stanbridge East. I shall eventually index all the unindexed English language newspapers which served the Eastern Townships which are available on microfilm. This will take years.
