A single copy of the first issue of the Gazette exists today, which was acquired by Library and Archives Canada on June 20, 2002 from the Massachusetts Historical Society in Boston.[2] Newsprint made from wood pulp was invented in 1844 by Nova Scotian Charles Fenerty and was presented to the Acadian Recorder as an alternative printing medium to the paper made from other plant fibers at the time, such as cotton, which was typically made from discarded articles of clothing.[3] Founded in 1874, the province's current primary daily broadsheet newspaper is The Chronicle Herald, which is circulated to 91,152 weekday customers, with the number increasing to 93,178 on Saturdays (2015). It is the most widely circulated newspaper in Atlantic Canada.[4] The paper does not publish on Sundays. It is owned by the SaltWire Network, the largest media company in Atlantic Canada.[5] The Nova Scotia Government also provides a digital archive of past newspapers via the Nova Scotia Archives website.[6]
