Google is growing its news archive to include stories that go back as far as 200 years.
The archive will include old material from the likes of The Guardian, The New York Times, Time Magazine and The Washington Post.
Searching for information about the 1969 moon landing, for example, will show original text from the time as well as more recent coverage over the past four decades.
Articles related to a theme are grouped together to allow users to see more perspectives on the events.
The service is being launched on the news.google.com domain and enables searching of articles written in English as well as articles in a number of other languages.
The company said it plans to introduce the service in other countries as well.
A separate service, Google Book Search, now offers PDF files of scanned books that can be downloaded and printed for free.
The PDFs are offered only for those books that fall into the public domain and are intended for personal use.
