Newspaper Research in Brazil
Rio de Janeiro has one of the most beautiful libraries in the world, the Biblioteca Nacional- www.bn.br
It is considered by UNESCO one of the tenth libraries in the world and the biggest in South America. Part of it is digitized and available online for research. You will find books, photos and newspapers from many states of Brazil. It’s precious for us doing genealogy.
What I most use is the newspaper database that is available on the following link and it’s fully researchable.

What I like most is that we can also save the images that are significant for our research. I already found some nice references from the XIX century and some of my family members.
I wish its website was both in Portuguese and English.

Thanks for visiting my My Portuguese Gen website. I wish you an exciting experience finding out more about your Portuguese ancestors in United States, Azores, Madeira, Portugal, Brazil through the resources I provide. They are so many and I try always to keep them updated.
If you want to share your thoughts about your experience here, or want to learn more about how to expand your Portuguese ancestry, you can leave me a message.
If you left a message and it does not show yet, be sure, it was received and soon will appear on the comments.
Again, thank you.
