There seems to be confusion in this thread between Newspaperarchive and America's Historical Newspapers.  The latter is the product that would typically be used in university libraries.

I can't answer Joan's precise question about what's theoretically available, but as of today our library is still using the old edition, Series I, II, III only.

I know that we've all had huge frustrations with Newspaperarchive.com.
Someone mentioned to me today that some time ago the company said it
would offer an upgraded and much superior product to those willing to
pay a higher subscription rate. Does anyone know whether that's true,
and if so, whether there is indeed a more reliable product than what's
available through university libraries? And if so, at what cost?
Thanks from everyone at DARE.
