Can I search the Post-Intelligencer's archives online?

Our news and features archives are not online at this time. Our Getaways section, however, does contain selected travel and outdoors stories going back several months.

The Seattle P-I Archives, a subscriber-only, dial-in research service, offers the full text of the P-I dating back to 1986. To learn more about its services -- including free trial offers -- check out http://www.seattlepi.newsbank.com.

If you know the name of the reporter who wrote it, you can reach them by calling (206) 448-8000. Many of our reporters can also be reached by e-mail. Check our online e-mail directory.

Our organization would like to reprint an article/photo/cartoon from the P-I.

You need to submit your request in writing to our publisher, J.D. Alexander. It must include all pertinent information (organization, article headline, where it will run, etc.) and may be sent by regular mail, fax or e-mail.

Is there a limit on the length of letters to the editor? Where should I send them?

We prefer to have letters limited to 300 words, but they can be longer if you wish. You can send them to editpage@seattle-pi.com.

Is there a limit on the length of op-ed submissions? Please limit them to 800 words. For more information, contact Editorial Page Editor Charles Dunsire; his phone number is (206) 448-8387.

Unfortunately, paper routes ended in 2009 when newspapers stopped being delivered. If you would like a Seattle Times route, click here.

I put some money in one of your newspaper boxes and didn't receive a paper or get my money back. Whom should I call?

As a third party (not affiliated with the Seattle P-I or Hearst Corp.), we cannot help with this. Also, since the Seattle P-I stopped printing & delivering newspapers in 2009, thus, this issue cannot be solved.

How do I give to the P-I Readers Care Fund?

You can send contributions to: P-I Readers Care Fund, P.O. Box 1909, Seattle, WA 98111. If you wish to charge a donation to your Visa or MasterCard, call (206) 448-8060. Contributions are tax-deductible. You may keep your donation anonymous.

This year's contributions will benefit the Northwest Harvest food bank, the Forgotten Children's Fund, Seattle Emergency Housing Service, and Central Youth and Family Services.

Every dollar donated goes to the charity; the P-I pays all administrative and other costs.
