The Scotsman has played a vital part in forming and reporting national opinion for nearly 200 years. Follow us to keep up with news and updates on Environment.
The Scotsman published its first issue on 25 January 1817. At that time it was just one of many newspapers published on Edinburgh's High Street, then the Fleet Street of Scotland.
It rose to become one of the world's greatest newspapers, but started modestly as a small, almost underground, weekly publication. Across the decades it has grown to become a Scottish liberal institution, championing free trade, parliamentary reform and Scottish devolution.
The National Library of Scotland holds every issue of The Scotsman, with a few key ones on show in the display.
