Just for the record Durham University Library has runs in hard copy of
these two newspapers

	al-Riyadh 1971-1987 (+ possibly some later issues)
	Ukaz 1973-1987 (+ possibly some later issues)

It would be useful to know which other libraries hold these on microfilm
(or even hard copy), as the time is not too far distant when hard copy of
these (and other newspapers) may have to be discarded.
