The Oxford Times has a number of colour supplements. Oxfordshire Limited Edition is included with the first edition of each month. There is also a monthly In Business supplement.
The Oxford Times has several sister publications:
The Oxford Times was founded in 1862 as a weekly broadsheet.[3][4]
In 1922, T.E. Lawrence (known as Lawrence of Arabia) commissioned The Oxford Times to typeset and print an advance private edition of Seven Pillars of Wisdom. This is known as the "1922 Edition" or the "Oxford Text" of Seven Pillars.
The Oxford Times has won a number of national awards including Regional Weekly Newspaper of the Year in 2004,[5] 2005,[6] and 2007.[7]
Originally a broadsheet, it switched to the compact format in 2008. Until 24 October 2008, the paper was published each Friday. Since then, it is published each Thursday.
Over time, through the emergence of digitization and online news, print circulation gradually declined (from 26,262 in 2006 to 3,482 in 2023) while online circulation increased (30 million+, Oxford Times & Mail).[8][1][2]
