Some newspaper databases collect around a theme, such as those dedicated to African-American newspapers. Others provide a wide range of titles from across the country with varying date ranges, such as America's Historical Newspapers.
If you are looking for a specific newspaper title, or newspapers from a particular city, try using OneSearch first to determine which database might include coverage of the needed resource. FSU may also have the newspaper you need, but only on microfilm.
