Stories that are more than 30 days old must be accessed through our archive. A few items — such as Letters to the Editor published in The Capital — are available in the archive only, from the day of publication.

To download stories, you'll need to purchase credits with an archive account. Your account will give you access to The Capital, Maryland Gazette and Bowie Blade-News archives.

If you visit a local library in Anne Arundel County you can download the stories at no cost.

You may wish to scan the headlines free of charge first to determine if we have the stories you want.

Important Notes

When you click on a headline, that is considered downloading the story. Once you are looking at the story, you should save or print it.

If you click the back button and then try to retrieve the same story again, you will have used up another story credit.

Classified advertisements, legal notices, graphics, and photographs are not included in these archives.Visit our online photography store to buy photos and gifts.

There may be a few days' delay before a story is archived - so if you don't see a story you're looking for, please check back in a day or two.

The Capital archive contains stories from 1991 to the present.

The Maryland Gazette archive contains stories beginning in March 2001.

The Bowie Blade-News archive contains stories beginning in January 2003.

Back copies

Back copies of The Capital are stocked up to six weeks past publish date. We cannot guarantee availability. If you would like to purchase a back copy please call ahead at 410-268-5000 or email backissues@capitalgazette.com.
