This is a list of newspapers in Scotland.
However, these definitions no longer apply, as several 'quality' papers in Scotland have followed the lead of The Independent by adopting a tabloid format (which some prefer to refer to as 'compact' to avoid being associated with their more downmarket peers).
In Scotland, two broadsheet newspapers have made the switch to 'compact' format.
The Scotsman did so in August 2004, and the Sunday Herald followed in November 2005.
In addition to newspapers published in Scotland, including Scottish editions of United Kingdom newspapers, a number of local newspapers published in other parts of the British Isles are widely available.
