Contact the library nearest to where the accident took place. Libraries keep back copies of local newspapers on microfilm.

If you can't get there in person most libraries have an email address and if you have a good idea of the date of the accident they MAY be willing to do a look-up for you.

Hi
Can anyone help me?. does anybody know if you can find old newspaper reports on the internet? I am looking for reports from 1975 in the Otley area for a specific car crash where a relative of mine was killed.
Thanks
