'''On This Day''' is the name of the [[BBC]]'s news archive website. It contains an online [[digital library]] of news stories reported by the BBC on [[World War II]] and world events from the 1950s to 2005. There are entries for every day of the year, many including [[video]] or [[Sound|audio]] reports which can be viewed online. The stories are arranged by years, by themes, by witness accounts and by the correspondents reporting the stories. There is also a front page which updates daily with past events from that date.
