The Flint Journal added a Tuesday print edition starting on March 23, 2010, bringing the number of publishing days a week to four. Unlike the other three daily editions, Tuesdays were originally "news stand only;" however, since June 7, 2011, the Tuesday edition has also been delivered to subscribers. If Metro Detroit is not counted, Flint is the fifth-largest city in the United States, and second largest in Michigan, without a daily newspaper. In 2012, the Journal donated its archives, consisting of more than 100,000 Flint Journal newspaper clippings, books, microfilm, microfiche and photographs, to Flint's Sloan Museum. In 2014, the MLive Media Group newspapers including the Flint Journal introduced digital editions via apps for tablets and smartphones on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday to complement the four print editions, which are also available in digital editions.
