CENTURIES of Scottish social history could be lost if funding is not found for preservation work, the National Library of Scotland has said.
The library has been collecting newspapers since 1925 but its collections date as far back as 1641, with papers coming from the length and breadth of Scotland.
The titles range from the Western Isles to the Borders and detail everyday moments and major events in the country’s history including the price of a pint and football scores.
