Delivery changes coming to Gannett SC publications in Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson

At the Greenville News, Spartanburg Herald-Journal and Anderson Independent Mail, we strive to reach readers in a variety of ways.

Through our print publications, to websites, to apps to a growing list of social media platforms, our journalists are proud to put their work on display. We especially value the loyal readership and our connection with our paying subscribers.

Starting Tuesday, Oct. 10, we are changing how we distribute the paper. We are partnering with the U.S. Postal Service for the delivery of our three Upstate SC publications. Each issue will be delivered by the postal service.

We are making this transition to ensure our newspaper delivery is consistent. A number of economic and workforce factors have created ongoing challenges with our newspaper delivery. Delivering the print edition through the USPS is the best way to guarantee our work gets into the hands of paid subscribers.

With this change, the Sunday edition will be delivered on Saturdays. Advertising inserts currently delivered on Sundays will be included and delivered to subscribers on Saturdays.

We know this shift will affect many of your morning routines since newspapers will arrive later. We appreciate your understanding and adapting to the change.

But if you need your local news with your morning coffee (like me), we have several options for you.

If you enjoy reading in a newspaper format, the eNewspaper is available on your computer or mobile device. That electronic replica of the printed paper is available each morning and is full of bonus content not available in the printed product. With your subscription, you also have universal access to eNewspaper publications across our network, including USA TODAY, as well as unlimited access to the USA TODAY Crossword digital app and site.

Greenville News - eNewspaper; Spartanburg Herald-Journal - eNewspaper; Anderson Independent Mail - eNewspaper.

Information is also always timely on our websites and our apps. Your subscription will continue to provide you full access to our websites, plus early morning newsletters delivered to your email. These emails will provide you with highlights so that you can jump right into these stories and enjoy the rest of the paper later in the day.

Our Upstate SC publications remain committed to local journalism.

We recently published a two-part series on the barriers to re-entering society by previously incarcerated individuals.

We break and analyze news on national, statewide and local politics.

We keep you updated on the restaurant and events scene in Greenville, Spartanburg and Anderson.

Our sports reporters cover Clemson, South Carolina and high schools like blanket cornerbacks.

We will continue to do these kinds of stories and comprehensive reporting while maintaining important work on public accountability and the upcoming elections.

Our publications have been entrenched in Upstate SC since the 1800s. We remain committed to providing meaningful stories and poignant images on a broad range of topics and issues.

If you have any questions about this change or need assistance accessing the eNewspaper, please contact customerservice at 1-800-844-2637.

Thank you for your support as we navigate this change.

Gabe Whisnant is executive editor of the Greenville News, Spartanburg Herald-Journal and Anderson Independent Mail.
